WINE DESCRIPTION
CK Mondavi Moscato is an easy-drinking wine that is designed to be enjoyed in its youth. For this wine, the grapes can be harvested from all over the state of California, allowing for a level of consistency of quality and style year after year. The wine is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to retain the aromatic qualities of the Muscat grape. The fermentation is halted prematurely to retain sweetness, giving the wine a roundness and enhancing the wine's inherent fruitiness.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
CK Mondavi Moscato has a medium golden appearance.On the nose, the wine is immediately expressive and open, offering aromas of ripe peaches, juicy mango, and fragrant orange blossoms. The palate of CK Mondavi Moscato mirrors the nose with straight-forward notes of ripe tropical fruits and flowers. The wine is sweet balanced by soft acidity, giving it a round and creamy texture. The finish is a little short and sweet, without being cloying.
