Wine Details
Price:
$12.99 per bottle
Description:
This wine is made from the same “Moscato bianco” grapes that are used in Italy’s Asti wines. This is a sweet wine, but the lower alcohol and high acidity keep it refreshing. Serve as an aperitif or after dinner with cheese or fruit. It is also great by itself. Serve well chilled.

Used mainly for making semi-sweet and sweet dessert wines. May be the oldest known grape, having a documented history of growth around the Mediterranean for many centuries.
