Tasting: Bartenura Moscato




Name: Bartenura Moscato
Variety: Moscato
Region: Lombardy
Country: Spain
Year: 2010
Price: $4.95
Winery 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: I thought this wine was very sweet, almost too sweet for my liking. The smell was very fresh and sweet. The taste kind of reminded me of white grape juice. It seemed to be a desert wine because it was very sugary.
 I did not have it with food.
