Marenco Scrapona Moscato D'Asti

This is by far the best wine I have had so far, though I am sure it is not the best out there. But, taking into account that I love things chilled, fizzy and sweet, this fit the bill. When I smelled it, I was turned off. It smelled just like beer and the smell also reminded me of some champagnes I have had. Since I was turned off by the smell, I wasn't very excited about tasting it, but oh my god... This is the sweetest wine I have ever had...and I thought my M�nchhof Riesling was sweet. It was very creamy tasting and went down very smoothly. The sweetness just lingered in my mouth minutes after swallowing. From the lingering, I picked up some Bubbalicious bubble gum flavor and pink cotton candy. Total, I had about 2 1/2 glasses and towards the end of the last glass, I was almost sweeted out. I was very impressed with this wine because I was able to just drink it like one might drink a glass of water, very casually. I suspect that part of that is because the alcohol content of this wine was low because very rarely am I able to just casually drink any type of alcoholic drink without getting that sting of alcohol on my taste buds that either makes me shiver or makes me pause before I swallow. This wine did no such thing. I enjoyed it immensely.
