2010 Bartenura Moscato Tasting


Name: Bartenura Moscato
Varietal: Moscato
Region: Provincia Di Pavia
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $4.95

Vintage Cellar's Review:

"The inviting apricot preserves, honey, butter, and roasted almond aromas of this semi-sparkler pull you right in. It's on the sweet side, with stone-fruit flavors kept alive by decent acidity. The palate
bubbles and tingles and maintains its balance. Fine as an aperitif or with dessert."

My Review:
Initial hints of pear and apricot in the nose. It has bubbles and is light and well balanced with slight acidity. The carbonation complemented the sweetness to create a perfect balance. This wine could go well with a lot of dishes. Low in alcohol and great to drink cold on a hot summer's day.

Tasted without food.
