Tasting Notes from The Vintage Cellar: The Zibibbo variety is noted for its delightfully fresh aromas and light fresh palate making it the ideal variety to use in sparkling wine. The variety is part of the Muscat family and is delightfully fresh, this frothy, sweet ‘alfresco’ sparkling wine displays crisp floral aromas with citrus peel and creamy flavors on the palate. Pale straw in color, the wine shouts of celebration and exuberance, and with a modest 8% alcohol, is ideal on a lazy sunny afternoon with friends.
If I had tried this wine a few months ago, I think I would have thoroughly enjoyed it and would possibly have become my favorite bubbly. It reminded me a lot of the Risata Moscato I swore by for a while, but I cannot handle this sweetness anymore. It had a very lovely aroma to it, sweet and fruity with a hint of citrus. I think I liked the way it smelled more than it tasted. The sweetness paired with the carbonation just did not set well on my palate, but I can see why this wine would be popular with most people. By the time we showed up to the store after class, only one bottle of it remained and was actually sold during our tasting!
