I know a lot of great wines. But you wouldn't have heard of them. My job at a wine store means that I taste a lot of obscure wines. This blog is a record of my better finds in the $10 to $20 range. If you have any questions please drop me an email at stiebelben@gmail.com. I always love to talk wine.

Secco Italian Bubbles Moscato 2011 (about $13)
About the Wine: Moscato grapes can produce one of the sweetest white wines available without sweetening additives. Depending on vintage and maker these wines can be sickeningly sweet or pleasantly sweet and nuanced.
About THIS Wine: It looks like Sprite in the glass, clear and bubbly. Sweet peach makes up the entirety of the nose and palate with no finish to speak of.
Drinking This Wine: Moscatos are almost never food wines. This is a sipper for a hot day.
Overall Impression: This is a run of the mill Moscato at an average price for the varietal (they tend to be cheap.) This wine is reasonable for the price.
