Tasting - Smoking Loon

Tasting: April 20, 2017

Name: Smoking Loon Blue Loon Moscato

Variety: Muscat

Region/Country: California, USA

Year: 2015

Winery Review: Our 2015 Smoking Loon “Blue Loon” Moscato opens with enticing aromas of honeysuckle, overripe honeydew melon, sundried apricot and a touch of honey, peach and mandarin. The palate presents ripe melon, peach nectar and orange blossom honey. The bright flavors and refreshing acidity make this Moscato the perfect accompaniment to a wide variety of foods. Enjoy our “Blue Loon” Moscato with brunch, light chicken or fish dishes or summer appetizers. It’s also delicious served with biscotti, creamy desserts, or fresh fruits such as yellow or white peaches. (site)


My Review: Can smell the sugars and sweetness in the initial sniff. Reminded me of strawberry lemonade with fresh notes. Very sweet taste but not dramatically sweet. Strawberry, kiwi, and other light berries are present.
