Wine Tasting - Lost Vineyards Spumante Italiano Moscato



Name:  Lost Vineyards Spumante Italiano

Variety:  Moscato - Non-Vintage
Region:  Piedmont
Country:  Italy
Year:  N/A
Price:  $7
Winery review:  Pale color. Confected, fruity aromas of yellow apple, honeysuckle, pear tartlet, and honeydew melon with a satiny, shy, spritzy, moderately sweet light-to-medium body and sleek, fast yellow apple, candied pear, honeycomb, and sweet papaya finish with no tannins and no oak. Simple and approachable with sweet apple, melon, and candied pear on a framework of gentle, delightful bubbles. 
Additional winemaker notes:  This wine did not have much of a nose.  It was very light, and not very bubbly (could have been left open for a while?).  I picked up on most of the fruit listed above - melon, pear, apple, and honey. I liked that it was easy on the tongue/palate with no to little tannins.  I did not try this wine with food.
