Tasting - Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia




Name: Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia
Variety: Moscato
Region: Not listed
Country: Italy
Year: Not listed
Price: $7.95

Wine critic review: Bright, light golden color. Very aromatic nose of ripe apricots, sage, honey and a slight minerality. Medium bodied, sweet and fruity with flavors of apricots and tangerine. Well balanced acidity and medium finish with layers of sweet and citrus fruit.
My review: I'm always pleased with the Moscato provided at the tastings that I have been to. This Moscato featured honey and apricot aromas with apricots in the taste as well. Very sweet and fruity which my palate loves. A very well balanced wine. I did not pair this wine with food, but it would pair nicely with a pound cake with honey drizzled on it.
