Joe Canal's Now Stocks Coppola Presents Moscato!

We're pleased to welcome into our extensive Moscato selection a great Rose out of California: Coppola Presents Moscato!

Those who’ve never tried Moscato (and Moscato lovers alike) are in for a delicious surprise. Highly fragrant and lusciously fruity, Moscato is akin to drinking a light fluffy apricot cloud! Our debut vintage offers a beautiful perfume of pears, pineapple and orange blossoms followed by light, delicate flavors of apricots, lime and clove. Fermented and finished in stainless steel to capture pure, sweet fruit impressions, this unique rosé can be enjoyed as an apertif or with a variety of hors d’oeuvres as well as after dinner sweets, soft cheeses or fresh fruit.

"In days gone by, my grandfather Agostino Coppola made wine for the family from grapes shipped in boxcars from the Napa Valley. In the concrete fermentor at 1747 Lexington Avenue in East Harlem, he mixed Moscato with Alicante Bouchet – the “baby grapes” as he called them – known for the intensity of the red color they gave, in proportion to their tiny size. Our Moscato is made in this same spirit – a rosé wine for everyday life." - Francis Coppola

Pick up a bottle (or three!) of this great new Moscato for only $8.99 in our Bottle Club!
