Michele Chiarlo 2005 Nivole (Moscato d’Asti)

Country: Italy / Nivole
Variety: Moscato Piedmont
Winery: Michele Chiarlo / Moscato d’Asti

There is something a little funky about this wine. At first, it has a creamy quality that mixes well with the peach and apricot flavors and gives the wine a certain complexity, but over time, that edge becomes a little dank, and begins to overwhelm the fruit.
