Sepp Moser 2007 Apetlon Muskat Ottonel

Water-pale straw color, considerable petillance evident.

Sweet perfumed smell with grapefruit and apple.

Mild barely off-dry pear flavor, thin in the middle and after, petillant. Flabby, lacks acid.

An unsatisfying bottle for $17.50. Lacks depth or conviction. After a nice smell typical of muscat, it just fades away without making an impression.

Pitule 2007 Moscato d'Asti

Not as fizzy as Champagne, but distinctly fizzy just the same. Frizzante. Very pale straw color.

Fresh fragrant fruit smell, lychee, pear, and melon.

Sweet honeyed apple and pear taste, made a pleasant match with roast turkey & stuffing. I skipped the cranberries, though.

A good buy for $12.99.
