Rock and Roots N/V Moscato (Spain), $5.39-$5.99, 90 points, was medium brass color with a lime green sheen throughout.
The floral and shoe-polish aromas were dominated by pleasant wood notes.
This Spanish Moscato was an interesting tart/sweet affair, light-bodied, showed good acidity, with a more angular texture than many Italian Moscato wines. Flavors of wood, lime, orange peel, lemon oil, Crème brûlée, and a hint of ginger were rather complex for $5 bottle of wine.
Finished long on the trailing palate and a modest 10.5% alcohol.
Paired well with my Buffalo hot wings.
