Anecoop Flare Espumoso de Moscatel
 |
|
BN#253285 |
This wine is produced from Valencia’s viticultural star, Moscatel. However, unlike more traditional, fortified styles, this wine’s residual sugar is not due to fortification but to arrested fermentation. Tank fermented until reaching 7.5% alcohol and then chilled and sterile filtered to remove the yeast. Carbonation is created through the Charmat method.
Wine Advocate
This is Spain’s version of an Italian Moscato. A lively, low alcohol (7.5%), fruit cocktail-styled, sparkler, Anecoop’s non-vintage Flare (100% Muscat of Alexandria) is a lot of fun to drink as an aperitif or even with breakfast. These wines are best drunk within six months of bottling, so consume this offering before the end of 2005.
Score: 87.
