Redtree 2010 Moscato #WineWednesday

So, I realized I didn’t have any material or wine available to write my Wine Wednesday post, and seeing as you might need some recommendations and you can’t wait for the week after this one (next week is Tales of the Cocktail Vancouver 2012 and I will be reporting from there), I figured I had to look after you, my dear readers. So I went to the wine store at the Quay in New Westminster and found myself a nice sweet, white wine: Redtree 2010 Moscato. Redtree Moscato 2010 reserve is a very nice and inexpensive wine. If you like dessert wine, this is the kind of stuff you want to drink for dessert.

Substantially sweeter than a port, and extremely light, but still full-bodied. With California grapes, and a decent 10.64% alcohol content, it’s slightly acidic for my taste (pH=3.47) but it retails for a nice $12.00 plus tax (from the website I see that it retails at $8.00 – I’m wondering if that’s American or what).

Our 2010 Moscato is soft and slightly spritzy with nectarine and rose petal flavors and crisp acidity. This sweet and elegant wine can be enjoyed as an after dinner refreshment with a variety of desserts or as a refreshing sipper on a warm summer afternoon.

You can find the full tasting notes here for Redtree Moscato 2010. I’d definitely recommend this wine for a summer night! Or just for dessert!
