Figurative 2023 California Black Muscat

This wine displays the same candylike characters as Jolly Rancher or Twizzlers along with notes of raspberry and apple. The alcohol is very low at 8% with a high residual sugar. The aromatic and fruity mouthfeel dominates due in part to the low alcohol. After citrus characters in the attack, this Black Muscat is round and syrupy in the mouth. This sweet wine has a short to medium length. The sweetness is balanced by the acidity and will pair well with many dishes.
