Wine Critic Review: "Straw green color. Aromas of green apple candy and pineapple yogurt with a supple, crisp, spritzy, sweet light body and a polished, brisk finish with no oak flavor. A fun and easy apple-flavored moscato." (https://www.tastings.com/Wine-Review/Barefoot-Fruitscato-NV-Apple-California-USA-09-18-2022.aspx)

References: From Wine Folly, page 138, Muscat Blanc has notes of orange blossom, meyer lemon, mandarin orange, ripe pear and honeysuckle. Generally, I could taste the lemon and I think a little honeysuckle from the sweetness. It's a sweet wine with a light body. Even with the green apple flavoring which normally is a little sour it was still sweet and light.

My review: This is a nice sweet wine to drink. The green apple flavor pair surprisingly well with the wine, I had been expecting a clash in the grape and green apple flavors. Overall a mild and sweet flavor from the green apple made it very enjoyable to drink.
