Lot 319
Moscato d' Asti

After a few years of fruitless searching, we finally came up with a terrific Moscato producer last spring to regale us with the delicious and ridiculously popular Lot 228 Moscato (which sold out in a flash). The good news is we are back with the 2011 version from the same producer.   Delicately sweet and lightly frizzante, this wine is playful and aromatic across the palate, making it a terrific aperitif or great just on its own. With some well-balanced residual sugar and its notable spritz, the finish is impeccably clean and refreshing. In fact, this perfectly balanced Moscato is quite a pleasure after encountering some of the dark, syrupy Moscatos that do damage to a good, crisp Moscato's reputation.  Style...Light, Fruity    Flavors... Honey, Peach, White Peach 

"We brought this in sight us seen last year when Cameron offered it.  We have a lot of sweet tooth's in the Valley and I knew with all the clients we have asking for the Breakfast of Champions we'd have little problem moving the wine.  Opened up a bottle for the first time with my friend Ross from RNDC and just laughed... How the hell does Cameron come up with these incredible bottles of wine...All the sweet things that you would expect with a crispness that places this Moscato Di Asti several rungs up the ladder."  Uncle Jerry
