Tasting - Cantina di Casteggio Moscato di Pavia

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

Critic Review: 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 tangerine. Well balanced acidity and medium finish with layers of sweet and citrus fruit.

My Review: This wine smelled of mangoes, apricots and peach candy.  It tasted very very sweet and fruity but with a mellow not so sweet aftertaste.  I did not try this wine with food.
