About Me

Hi! I'm Christina, and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech! I'm in Northern VA now pursuing a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I'd like to continue what I learned from the Geography of Wine class I took in Spring of 2012, so I'll be posting about different wines and wine events. I would be very grateful for suggestions, and I'm open to expanding my posts to beer and liquor as well!

Tasting - Innocent Bystander Moscato


Name: Innocent Bystander Moscato

Variety: 100% Muscat
Region: Yarra Valley
Country: Australia
Year: 2011
Price: $15.95
Shop Review: The focus of Innocent Bystander is to produce quality, flavor-driven wines from carefully selected vineyards in the Yarra Valley and beyond.  Over time Steve Flamsteed and his team have increased the level of complexity and texture in the Innocent Bystander wines with greater use of wild fermentations and restrained oak handling.
My Review: This semi-sparkling wine has a lot of attitude!  This is like nothing I’ve had before.  It is a pretty pink color and a light aroma of grapefruit.  It tastes almost like liquid cotton candy.  However, it is super-sweet, so you should pour yourself only a small glass.  It’s perfect for anybody with a sweet tooth!

I had this wine alone without any food.
