This is some bubbly fun for Summer. It is as it appears in the glass, grapey and frothy. It smells as it appears too. Made from Frontignan from the Barossa Valley, it is as upfront a medium sweet pronounced fruit and perfumed wine as you should expect from this style of Moscato but has [...] August 19th, 2009 | Tags: Moscato, White Wine | Category: Barossa Valley, Moscato, White Wine | Leave a comment
