Tasting - Beringer Pink Moscato

Shop Review: This mischievous Moscato is made to be sipped with a wink and a smile. Rich berry and delicate tropical and floral notes dance on the tongue for a luscious taste and juicy finish—sealed with a kiss. Notes of ripe mandarin orange and pink grapefruit unfold with delicate rosewater on the palate. Pair Be. Flirty Pink Moscato with your playful side. Whether it’s a good hair day, or that new pair of stylish shoes, Be. Flirty will set the mood for an unforgettable day.
My Review: In a word, sweet. This pale pink wine smelled very floral and fruity. I smelled some lemon and hints of raspberry in a crispy, unobtrusive flavor. At first, the wine was very sweet, with a little crisp. I maybe had some hints of strawberry, raspberry, or some other red berries. In the end there was a slight bite, slightly peppery taste, but probably due to the relatively high alcohol content to other sweet dessert wines. This certainly does make me crave some shellfish. Like a big, old bay infused crab feast. Overall, it didn't wow me, but like the red moscato, not unpleasant, like a decent candy.
