Barefoot Red Moscato (1.5L, 9%)

A sweet, lightly effervescent California red wine made from Muscat grapes and bottled at 9% ABV in a 1.5 litre format. It is produced by Barefoot, part of E&J Gallo Winery, with production based in Modesto and Livingston, California. The wine gains its light ruby hue and berry character through limited contact with red grape skins, and the grapes are night harvested to preserve delicate aromatics. Fermentation temperatures are controlled to retain natural sweetness and bright fruit expression. The aroma opens with sweet floral lilac, followed by ripe cherry and strawberry, with subtle blood orange and apple. The palate is juicy with red cherry and raspberry, then pineapple, peach and apricot with citrus brightness; gentle effervescence lifts the fruit, with subtle cranberry and plum. The finish is crisp with lingering mixed berry and a faint lemongrass accent.
