Our take
What we make of this bottle
$6.99 was the lowest shelf figure in our September 2026 price checks for this pink Moscato. Our grape research says many wines in the Moscato family are sweet, but our evidence does not establish how sweet this particular bottling runs.
So the description comes from the grape. Moscato is a family name for aromatic white grapes, Moscato Bianco among them, and grocery examples arrive still, lightly fizzy or fully sparkling. The Asti consortium describes flower, peach and apricot aromas for Moscato Bianco, and our grape research says many familiar versions keep noticeable sweetness with lower alcohol.
Shoppers have been busy: 66 ratings, a higher count than four in five of the wines in our catalog, with the average at 4.52 as of August 12, 2026. The high we saw in those September 2026 price checks was $12.99. Its low price sits under most comparable bottles in our catalog.
Before this one goes in the cart, check the label for two things the family name leaves open: still or sparkling, and how sweet.
Our call: a sensible pick if pink Moscato is what you came for and price is the deciding vote, since it sits among the least expensive wines we track and plenty of shoppers have already weighed in. Pass if you steer by the shopper average, which lands below the middle of the rated wines we cover, or if you would rather not gamble on how sweet or how fizzy the bottle turns out.

Research status
What we are still checking
Our overview above draws on the dated store feed, shopper ratings, our region and grape research, and any sourced producer facts. We are still working to confirm the current release, the full producer record, and the bottle itself, and we update this page as we learn more.
Getting to know California.
California on the label is useful provenance but weak detail about place. For these wines, sourcing disclosure, blend construction and house-style consistency carry more decision value than a generic climate paragraph.
What the name means
A state-level appellation, broader than an individual American Viticultural Area. It permits a multi-region blend and does not by itself identify one climate or soil.
How grapes grow here
The state spans cool maritime zones and hot inland valleys. A California designation alone does not reveal which conditions shaped the fruit.
What lies under the vines
At state scale, sourcing and house-style construction matter more than any single soil story.
How large the region is
- Reusable question
- Which counties or AVAs supplied the blend, and did that mix change by release?
Places within the region
- Resolution limit
- County, AVA and vineyard claims begin only when the release names them.
Getting to know Moscato.
Moscato is a family name used for aromatic white grapes, including Moscato Bianco. Grocery-store examples can be still, lightly fizzy or fully sparkling.

What to expect in the glass
The Asti consortium describes flower, peach, apricot and citrus-blossom aromas for Moscato Bianco. Many familiar versions keep noticeable sweetness and lower alcohol, but the exact label should establish both sweetness and bubbles.
