Wine Critic Review: "Bursting with all the flavors of perfectly-ripe peaches, Barefoot Peach FRUITSCATO is a sweet way to treat yourself. Fresh from the farm with a bright, crisp finish, it pairs perfectly with everything from artisanal cheeses to delicious desserts."

References: From Wine Folly, page 138, Muscat Blanc has notes of orange blossom, meyer lemon, mandarin orange, ripe pear and honeysuckle. This wine has nice citrus notes, I would say I could taste meyer lemon and mandarin orange. It's hard to say if I could get the notes of orange blossom and honeysuckle, there was a slight floral taste.

My review: I've had several of the Fruitscato flavors and enjoyed them all. This is definitely one of my favorites of the flavors. It is a nice sweet that has strong peach notes (it's peach flavored). The wine has a light enjoyable body. The sweet of the wine is balanced with the acidity and citrus flavor. Will be drinking again!
