NV Rinaldi Pink Bug Juice - 89 PTS - WA

Wine Advocate 89 Pts"Rinaldi made a 2011 "Bug Juice" Pink from 90% Moscato d'Asti and 10% Brachetto d'Acqui. This is an addictive, light pink-colored, frothy rose that is quite low in alcohol, with deliciously sweet strawberry and cherry notes intermixed with hints of peach and apricot. Just stunning, there is much less of it available (800 cases). I can imagine that if you're sitting by the pool on a hot summer day, this wine would be the perfect accompaniment."
