Lost Vineyards Spumante Italiano


Name: Lost Vineyards Spumante Italiano
Variety: Moscato
Region: Piedmont
Country: Italy
Year: Non-Vintage
Price: $6.95
Shop/Critic/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 a 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."

My impressions: Light, sweet, fruity nose.  Light apple flavors, with a light body throughout.  Very light all the way.  Waaaay too sweet for my palate; I prefer my sparkling wines to be dry these days.  Brut. Extra Brut. Yeah.  This wine was very uninteresting to me.  Meh.
