Brown Brothers Moscato Rosa 2010


For years Australians have been enjoying Moscato, their own take on Italy's Moscato d'Asti.
These wines are enticingly sweet, perfumed and spritzy; always served well chilled and always in the sunshine.
Now that we're headed for summer, I think it's time to throw this pink Moscato from Brown Brothers into the mix. Right now it's on offer at Waitrose at £5.59.
