Tasting - Jam Jar

Jam Jar, Sweet White 2014
South Africa
Price: $8.95

Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes: "This charming, easy-drinking Moscato offers flavors of peach, apricot, lychee and orange blossom. A lively jolt of acidity keeps it fresh and fruity. Fancy enough for a special occasion toast, yet sweet-natured enough to enjoy every day, our bright and cheerful sweet wines are sure to capture your heart."

This wine very much smelled like candy, extremely sweet on the nose as well as pretty jammy. On the palate it was sweet, as expected, but pleasant at the same time. I thought immediately of peach flavored chewy candies. I found it to be very well balanced which is what I believe made the sweetness bearable. Will keep in mind for a dessert wine in the future.
