There is a big market these days for sweet wines. Sweet in the sense that they are not dry, but not exactly dessert style. Mosketto Frizzante Bianco - from Bronco Wines - should appeal to those looking for a low-alcohol beverage in the White Claw vein. I was not bowled over by its complexity, but for sweet, fizzy fun, it fits perfectly. The Moscato grapes came from Italy's Piedmont region and the wine hits only 5% abv for alcohol content - really partially fermented grape juice - while selling for $12. Don't pair it with dessert, by the way - it goes better with salty snacks.
This one is all Moscato. The wine is actually a partially fermented grape juice. Sweet on the nose, sweet on the palate - with a bit of fizz thrown in to make it feel more like a party. This is a wine for gulping by the pool, not a wine for ruminating upon.
