Tasting - Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia

Name: Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia
Variety: Moscato
Region: Oltrepo Pavese, Lombardy
Country: Italy
Year: 2010
Price: $7.95

Bright, light golden color. Very aromatic nose of ripe apricots, sage, honey and a slight minerality. Medium bodied, sweet and fruity with flavors of apricots and tangerines. Well balanced acidity and medium finish with layers of sweet and citrus fruit.


Light pink color. Smelt of flowers, perfume, and kind of like artificially scented bathroom soap. Very bubbly. Tasted flowery, but also kind of perfumey. The artificial scents came through in the taste. I almost liked this, but there was something about it that did not taste right.
