Wine Press NW says: "Year after year, Silvan Ridge crafts a winner with this low-alcohol, spritzy wine. Its soft, spicy aromas show off notes of rose water. Pure, delicious fruit might remind you of poached pears and freshly cut apples. This is about as good as it gets. Won gold and best of class at the San Diego National Wine Competition and gold at the Riverside International Wine Competition."This wine was fermented at a low temperature to accentuate the fresh fruit character. It displays explosive peach, mandarin orange and classic floral Muscat aromas that jump out of the glass. The flavors mirror the nose with a lively citrus quality, refreshing acidity and spritz to balance the sugar. The finish is clean refreshing with long fresh peach flavors reminiscent of the best Italian moscatos. Serve very well chilled as an ap?ritif or as a dessert with fresh fruit.

WPNW Review (Spring 2001): A delicious wine, especially for newer wine drinkers. This white wine has lovely floral aromas and flavors. It?s soft and flavorful with smooth, sweet and broad muscat characteristics. Won gold at the Bite of Portland.A semi-sparkling wine, this is fermented under pressure, fermentation is stopped at 6.5? alcohol and it is bottled under pressure to make it fizzy. It has a sweet grapey nose and has a semi-sweet, rounded palate. Great fun.San Francisco International Wine competition 1998--

Light, delicate and sweet, with disarmingly gorgeous pear, melon litchi and floral flavors that keep singing on the harmonious finish. Drink now.
