Tasting- AMBOSCATO Sweet White


Name:  AMBOSCATO Sweet White 

Variety: 100% Moscato

Region: Piemonte

Country: Italy 

Year: N/A

Price: $8.99

Winery Review: "fresh, slightly sparkling, sweet and fruity with a persistent finish." Alessandro Berselli

Wine Folly: Muscat Blanc pg 138- Very sweet with notes of orange blossom, Meyer lemon, mandarin orange, ripe pear, and honeysuckle. It is recommended to be chilled and paired with almond cake.

Personal Review: This wine was very good! It had a sweet smell that was very floral. The initial taste had herbal undertones like grass, but it was not bad. The flavor was mostly white floral with a hint of sparkle, citrus, and honeysuckle. It was sweet but not unpleasant. Light body with a short finish. It was very good with Brie, crackers, and orange fig spread. The food brought out the orange flavor to the wine, but made it a little unbalanced. It wasn't terrible but made it bitter in the finish.
