Tonight's wine was one of those I usually would walk past. It is a semi-blush? They call it a Moscato Rose. The wine is a product of South Eastern Australia.
If you absolutely detest sweet wine, this is probably not your cup of tea, but if you occasionally like a sweeter choice. This is pretty good. It falls short of syrupy sweet with a slightly buttery feel to the mouth.
The flavor is hard to describe. It is slightly fruity like a red, but also shares notes with whites. Warm it would be nice with a spicy dish. Chilled, it is just very drinkable. It would pair nicely with a light summery dessert like strawberry shortcake.
The bottle was $5.47 at Walmart. For that price, it is a nice summery wine and one I will probably pick up again from time to time. Especially for my friends who like Moscato, Riesling, Guertztraminer, or fruit wines.
I will try to look for a bolder choice next time to cater to my alternative palated friends!
