WINE DESCRIPTION
Piquitos Moscato is a delightful and semi-sweet white wine produced in the Valencia region, Spain. The grapes are grown in vineyards with sandy soils and a Mediterranean climate, which impart a unique character to the wine. The winemaking process involves a fermentation at low temperatures to preserve the natural aromas and flavors of the Moscato grape. The resulting wine is a refreshing and aromatic white wine with notes of peach, apricot, and honey, and a delicate sweetness that makes it perfect for pairing with desserts or enjoying on its own. Piquitos Moscato is a great choice for those who appreciate a light and fruity wine with a touch of sweetness.

ORIGINS
Winery: Piquitos
Region: Valencia
Valencia, a wine region stretching along Spain's eastern coast, boasts a long history of winemaking dating back to the Roman era. It's one of the country's largest wine producers, encompassing two distinct Denominaciones de Origen (DOs): Valencia DO and Utiel-Requena DO. The Valencia DO is known for its diverse offerings, including light and refreshing Cava sparkling wines and rich red wines. Utiel-Requena DO, located further inland with a more continental climate, excels in full-bodied red wines, particularly those made from Tempranillo and the local Bobal grape. CUSTOMER RATING
