Wine Tasting – Sonnenband Moscato Magnum

Name: Sonnenband Moscato Imported (in Magnum)
Variety: 100% Muscat
Region:  Mosel, Germany
Country: Germany
Year: 2011
Price: $20 à $9.95

Winery Review: This wine is intricate with the delicate perfumes of white flower blossoms, profound tropical fruit sweetness, and energized by citrus nectars. (this review is actually from the 2011 Besitos Moscato).

My Review: This wine smelled SUPER SWEET. Sickly sweet. This wine had a super floral quality to it, like sugared flowers. I was able to get a hint of tropical fruits—papaya and mango. The citrus profile was subdued by a slight honey flavor. This wine is incredibly well-integrated and balanced. The lingering end adds to the full-bodied texture and finish of this wine.

With food?: I tried this wine on its own without food.
