I've had Italian Moscato and the lowest mine have been is 6%, so I didn't know the alcohol could be that low.Dr. Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892131332003571463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-74441595191829731232007-08-12T16:37:00.000-07:002007-08-12T16:37:00.000-07:00I have had a few California Muscats/Moscatos and f...I have had a few California Muscats/Moscatos and find they can vary widely in style. Italian Moscato d'Asti is consistently fizzy and low alc (5.5%), and so peachy you can't believe it is made solely from grapes. FYI, theere is an excellent kosher Muscat made by Golan; St Supery makes a great non-sparkling Calif Moscato; and Muscat is (I believe) the only table grape that also makes decent wine. It's all about the sugar!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-66436666076032462362007-08-12T15:48:00.000-07:002007-08-12T15:48:00.000-07:00David, now I wish I'd picked up the zin and sangio...David, now I wish I'd picked up the zin and sangiovese when I had the chance.

All the moscato I've had was between 7-9% alc/vol, so I've never had one as low alc as the ones you've had.Dr. Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02892131332003571463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6053780638267491912.post-83313805916879259202007-08-10T20:40:00.000-07:002007-08-10T20:40:00.000-07:0010% alcohol?
