Joseph Cattin Muscat 2003 (Alsace)

Price - $16.99 Size - 750 mL- Old World vs. New World Wine Tasting held on Monday May 16, 2005 at the Powers Liquor Mart in Colorado Springs with Will Gillum, comparing representative varietals from Old and New World Styles. I posted some thoughts I had before the tasting, and thoughts I had after the tasting.

Very light coloring with medium legs with honeysuckle and citrus on the nose. Peachy sweet flavors, like other muscat based wines I've had. Gets dry at the end and the finish is short. Grade: C+
