A wildly aromatic wine with abundant amounts of white peach, pear, orange blossom and honeysuckle, our Moscato is delicately effervescent, lending a bright refreshing quality to an otherwise sweet wine with naturally low alcohol, and good acidity. It is delightful as an apertif with fruit, great for special days or simply celebrating summer.
ABOUT THIS WINE
Foris Vineyards has been cultivating a specific selection of Early Muscat since 1976, and it's proven to be right at home i our alpine valley. In the past, we've made this grape in a number of different styles, from dry, off-dry, to late harvest and even a fortified dessert version. But it wasn't until our previous winemaker, Bryan Wilson, showed us his unique take on Muscat did we have our "Eureka!" moment.
Unabashedly inspired by the frothy Moscatos from Italy's Piedmont region, our take on Moscato is playful, highlighting its exuberant qualities. We arrested fermentation midway through the process, preserving original sweetness and capturing natural carbonation produced during fermentation.
