Wine Tasting- Barefoot Fruitscato Strawberry

Name: Barefoot Fruitscato Strawberry

Variety of Grapes: Moscato- Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains

Country of Origin: United States

Region of Origin: California

Vintage Year: Nonvintage

Price: $7

Wine Critic Review: "Light siam color. Aromas of warm strawberry preserves and grape jelly with a silky, petillant, medium body and a medium strawberry shortcake with lemon curd and strawberry phosphate finish. A bold strawberry bomb of a moscato for fans of dessert in a glass." (https://www.tastings.com/Wine-Review/Barefoot-Fruitscato-NV-Strawberry-California-USA-02-18-2023.aspx)

References: From Wine Folly, page 138, Muscat Blanc has notes of orange blossom, meyer lemon, mandarin orange, ripe pear and honeysuckle. I was able to taste the citrusy flavors but not the floral notes. It's a sweet wine with a light body, which I could definitely taste.

My review: I really liked this wine. It's light and sweet which makes it fun to drink. There's not a particularly strong strawberry flavor, it's more just generally sweet. Overall I enjoyed it!
