Sutter Home Moscato (75cl, 10.1%)

Sutter Home Moscato is a sweet, light-bodied California Moscato at 10.1% ABV, presented in a 750ml bottle. The Muscat grapes are sourced from California's Central Valley and cold-fermented at 50°F, then aged entirely in stainless steel tanks. Winemakers cap and drain the juice to increase varietal intensity and forgo malolactic fermentation, keeping the natural acidity crisp and lively. Sutter Home Winery was founded in 1890 in St. Helena, Napa Valley, and Moscato was the first wine the estate ever bottled. The wine opens with delicate white peach and rose petal aromas, followed by exotic lychee and a subtle honeyed sweetness. On the palate, ripe peach and nectarine arrive first, with juicy melon, honeydew and light caramel undertones. Refreshing acidity keeps the sweetness in check. The finish is vivid and crisp, with lingering sweet peach and honeydew melon and a clean, slightly floral aftertaste.
