Pink Moscato Summer Favorite

Why Pink Moscato Is a Summer Crowd Pleaser

Pink Moscato, looking for a wine that’s sweet, fruity, and ready for anything from brunch to BBQ? This soft, fruity wine is your answer

With its rosy hue, lower alcohol, and irresistible notes of strawberry and peach, this wine delivers big flavor in a light, easy-to-drink style. Whether you’re gifting a bottle or pairing it with spicy takeout, it’s a wine that makes summer easy.

What Makes This Rosé-Style Wine Unique

Pink Moscato is a sweet rosé wine made primarily from Muscat grapes, typically blended with a small amount of red wine (like Merlot) to give it its signature pink color. It’s not a traditional rosé — it’s a playful, fruit-forward variation of Moscato that’s become wildly popular for warm-weather sipping.

What sets Pink Moscato apart:

  • Low alcohol: 5–7% ABV

  • Natural sweetness from Muscat grapes

  • Light fizz (optional)

  • Soft pink color from red wine blending

What Does Pink Moscato Taste Like?

Pink Moscato tastes like summer in a glass. Expect a flavor profile that includes:

  • Strawberry

  • Cotton candy

  • Ripe peach

  • Honeysuckle

  • Watermelon

It’s light-bodied, smooth, and best served chilled around 45°F. The sweetness is balanced by gentle acidity and a whisper of floral aromatics.
