Well my first post and hopefully if you try this wine you agree its a beauty!
Moscato (Muscat) is a grape which I have recently become quite attached to. Having gotten to know the Spanish version Moscatel (mainly from around Valencia), I have found this light, refreshing and sweet wine to be a real treat.
The amazing thing about this grape and wine is that the Europeans want to get rid of it, and ship it over to us for next to nothing! Result!
Majestic Wines used to stock a real fantastic example for around £4.00, but I can't seem to get a hold of that one any more... which isn't the point of this blog "readily available wines in the supermarkets and shops". I'll link it anyway
A trip to London at the weekend led me to stumble across a wonderful sight, Oddbins! Having not realised they had just managed to stay trading, after being hit hard by the recession, I dove straight in.
The rest is history I found Gemma, an Italian beauty, with an ever so light sparkle and such an array of flavours!
This one probably doesn't need a food match, I enjoyed in a bit of a rush before heading out with family for a meal, which is OK because it's only in the region of 5% alcohol.
