Tasting #24 - Sparkling


Name: Lost Vineyards (Spumante Dolce)
Grape: ?
Color: straw yellow
Smell: not super aromatic in my opinion
Taste: really sweet, good mouth feel, sparkling of course
Dryness/Sweetness: very sweeeeet
Food: just tasting
Country/Region: Italy

Alcohol Content: low
How much? $4.95
Where’d you try it? Vintage Cellar
Would you drink it again? At least one more time – I would buy it for the right occasion. This is not something I would buy to sip at home at my leisure. I just don't roll that way.

Extra thoughts? To date, I can count the number of sparkling wines I’ve tasted on 1 hand. My opinion on this one should be taken with a grain of salt.

Other reviews:

From the Vintage Cellar:
"Pale silvery straw color. Floral aromas of apples, peaches, and potpourri follow through on a round, frothy entry to a fruity medium bodied sweet wine with good depth and tangy peach fruit and a breezy, harmonious green apple kissed finish."

My rating scale works as such:
1. Never Again
2. If someone else bought it
3. I'd keep it in mind
4. At least one more time
5. Going to get another bottle right NOW!
