2011 Alamos Moscato

Published April 5, 2013 2011 Vintage , Apricot , Dessert , Honey , Moscato Leave a Comment

Alamos-Moscato Moscato d’Asti is characterized by its freshness, elegant floral aromas and delicate flavors of peaches and apricots. It is generally fuller and more complex, though not as crisp, and is considered to display more finesse than its sibling Asti Spumante.

From the Wine Maker – “Alamos Moscato is sourced from the foothills of the Andes Mountains in Argentina, where some of the world’s highest vineyards are located. Alamos Mosacato exhibits flavors of fresh apricot and honey, with layers of citrus aromas.”

This wine is light on the palate and pairs excellent with grilled chicken, salads, and slightly spicy foods.

Risata Moscato d’Asti

Published March 16, 2012 2010 Vintage , Dessert , Honey , Moscato Leave a Comment

D.O.C.G. White wine. Risata, meaning laughter, will honor its Italian name by being the focus of any occasion. The supple sweetness of this wine will shine as an aperitif, with dessert, or on its own.

From the Wine Maker – “This Moscato d’Asti is fresh, fragrant, and frizzante with vibrant, flavors and aromas of ripe stone fruit, tangerines and honey. The wine is concentrated and flavorful, but not overly rich or heavy; sweet, yet balanced.”

Pairs well with before dinner, after dinner, spicy dishes, tiramisu, panettone, toasted hazelnuts, apricots and figs drizzled with honey or cake.
