2010 Moscato D’Osoyoos
Winemaker's Notes
Inspired by the renowned Moscato d’Asti of the Piedmont region in Italy, our version expresses an intense and complex array of aromatics complementing this grape’s true varietal expression. The light effervescence adds to the texture of this wine while showcasing the classic Moscato flavours and pefume: orange blossom, peach rind, rose petal and melon. With around 9%Alc./Vol. this is a perfect aperitif, dessert or brunch wine.
Pairings
As in Italy, Moscato makes the perfect accompaniment to the beginning or end of a meal. The soft and approachable style of this wine will also complement softly flavoured cheeses.

Light in alcohol at 9% and finished with slight effervescence, this wine begins with attractive floral aromas and has spicy fruit flavours, with a refreshing tang on the finish.
