Tasting-Opera Prima Pink Moscato

This wine is a sparkling wine from Spain. It is called the Opera Prima Pink Moscato. The variety is of 97% muscat and 3% tempranillo. It is one that has no vintage (or year). It is priced at $5.95 at the Vintage Cellar.
Vintage Cellar Review:
They say that this is a sparkling wine with a aromas of fresh berries and tropical fruits with hints of white flavor petals. This is a balance between silky sparkling sweetness, with a crisp and refreshing finish. They state that is is fine on its own or with any type of sweets or desserts.
My Review:
This wine is not just simply sweet, it has texture. It scent is very floral with hits of cherry and strawberry. It is such a fruity light and delicate scented wine. When the wine first touches your tongue it fizzes into a palate full of flavor. Its taste is somewhat of a grapefruit taste. It has a little bite to it but then there are all these flavors of sweetness and fruitiness. This wine would pair well with desserts yes, but I also believe this wine would be very good with breads and also salty cheeses. A little sweetness added to the saltiness of the cheeses and the carby bread would be very lovely. This is a very tasty wine in which I would highly recommend especially for this price.
