What is Moscato Wine?
In most cases Moscato wine is a sweet, slightly bubbly (aka frizzante) white wine made from Muscat Blanc grapes often referred to more specifically as Moscato d’Asti. (see below for examples of more Mostcato styles). Though Moscato is often sweet, its low alcohol (5-7% ABV) and refreshing flavor profile makes Moscato more than just a dessert wine.Where does Moscato come from?

Moscato grows everywhere. From Italy to Brazil, Moscato’s presence over thousands of years in many different cultures suggests that the Muscat grape variety is really old. Moscato could be the oldest cultivated vitis vinifera grape.

Moscato has one of the most unique smells of all wine. It’s so unique that wine people often just describe it just as “Muscat Aroma,” which is not that helpful. Scientists studied the floral aromatics in Muscat and found prevalence of a chemical compound called linalool, which is also found naturally occurring in mint, citrus flowers and cinnamon.http://winefolly.com/review/moscato-wine/
