Tasting: Barefoot Pink Moscato

Wine: Barefoot
Variety: Moscato
Region: California, USA
Year: 2014
Price: $6.99

Critic Review:  Aromas of Mandarin orange and sweet jasmine crash into each other to create a deliciously sweet sea of pink goodness. Subtle flavors of cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate wash ashore in the flavorful experience.

My Review: This particular pink moscato is best enjoyed lightly chilled and with a sweeter fruit. When inhaling the aroma of this wine, I immediately detected the raspberries in this wine. The taste of the wine was a subtle mix of sweet fruit flavors, and it left me with an aftertaste that was just a little too syrupy sweet. I enjoy this wine with sweet fruit, but I also think it would pair well with something a little spicier. I think it would cut the spice quite nicely.

Overall, I enjoyed this wine. For the price, it is a pretty good bargain.
