MOSCATO'S delicate "frizzante" style is balanced with lively and soft fruit sweetness, making it an ideal end-of-summer sipper alone or in a sangria-style fruit punch.
Jacob's Creek Moscato ($11 at BC Liquor Stores and private wine retailers) has sorbetlike flavours and a bright bouquet of tropical and white peach aromas with undertones of honeysuckle and lemon.
Fresh grapefruit and lemon-infused vodka give this patio-perfect drink recipe a citrus kick.
