Tasting - Opera Prima Pink Moscato

Name: Opera Prima Pink Moscato
Variety: 97% Muscat, 3% Tempranillo
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: 2012
Price: $7

Winery Review: A blend of Muscat 97% and Tempranillo 3%. This fine sparkling presents an intense aroma of fresh berries and tropical fruits with hints of white flower petals. Delicate bubbles caress the palate offering a silky and pleasant sweetness well balanced by a crisp, refreshing finish. Ideal on its own, as an aperitif or with all types of sweets and desserts. Serve it very cold, between 7 and 9°.

My Review: The first smell was overwhelmingly fruity. It was of pineapple, fruit rinds, a bit citrusy, and sugar candy. The taste was quite delightful. I got hints of red delicious apple, grapefruit, candy, and cotton candy. All around sweet. It was pleasant to drink and could be a dessert all on its own.
