While I found the Moscato pleasing, I actually voted for its final competitor, a Finger Lakes Riesling, I believe?

Thanks for the comment!
Cheers,

You know I’m a fan of your’s Jessica!
Now, contrasting opinion time. : )

I was a judge in the NextGen Competition who did NOT vote for the Barefoot Muscato. Blind I thought it tasted like sweet, soapy, gasoline. Not a wine I care for.
After I left the competition, I even bought another bottle, just to re-evaluate…after all, we had tasted 150+ wines by sweepstakes!
But again…I couldn’t even swallow it, and in a blind tasting, none of my friends liked it either.

Much love!
Shauna
