Light yellow/silvery gold in color. Slight froth with smallish bubbles. No real nose, but with air a slight pine note comes out. On the palate, this is sweet and not cloying though very sweet. Nice minerality. Long, long finish. This will work as a cocktail or as a dessert wine. Salty foods would probably be best.

This is another fun wine from this producer. It comes in attractive packaging although the screw top actually has a tiny leak in it and left a small pool in the fridge. No worries, the wine was sound and it is only the second time I have seen such a closure fail. This is a lightly sparkling (frizzante) rose that checks in at 5.5% abv. It is a blend of Moscato and Brachetto grapes. Pale salmon in color a white froth. The nose has pink grapefruit and strawberries and slight simple syrup notes. Medium bodied. On the palate, this is semi-sweet with nice watermelon notes. Great acidity
This is a Moscato from Italy. It is made in Frizzante style meaning lightly sparkling. This is made to be a fun, easy drinking wine. It comes in a colorful, attractively packaged bottle. At 5% alcohol, it is very easy to drink. Silvery/gold/green in color, clear and bright. A nice frothiness to it in the glass. The nose has minerality, seltzer and citrus (lime). On the palate, this is sweet with minerals and lime. Moderate finish. This is a fun wine that drinks easily on its own and will work well with lighter foods. Fun.
