Butterfly Kiss Moscato

Name: Butterfly Kiss
Variety: Moscato
Region: Chile (bottle and reviews online are no more specific)
Country: Chile
Year: 2012
Price: $13, on sale for $5.95
Shop/Critic/Winery Review: "Aromas of honeydew and apricot, gently kissed by orange blossom, candied pineapple and a hint of lime zest."

My Impressions:
Light, golden honey color. Upon the first sniff... MELON! MELON!  The melon continued through as I tasted it, together with some kind of tree fruit - apple? It was too sweet though, so much that it was distracting.  The finish was unremarkable.  I'm not a fan of wines this sweet, unless they're ice wines or true dessert wines.  This seems sweet for sweetness' sake. I wouldn't buy it.

I did not have food with this.
