Moscato is a fruity, sweet, spritzy, and delicious partner for vineyard-hopping. It’s becoming a popular choice at wine festivals, food fairs, and girly events. Moscato is made of Muscat grapes. This is one of the oldest varieties known to man. You’ve probably had your moments with Asti Sumante. This is the Piedmont region’s classic version.
On Hunter Valley wine tours, you could almost smell the delicate aromas of Moscato. The region’s wines complement every dish, from rich lunches to sweet desserts.
