Imagine, for a moment, you were looking into a goblet filled with vibrant hues of pale yellow and green. You smell the tropical aromas and you can only imagine how delicious the flavors will be. You lift the goblet to your lips, look down at the wine-
-and suddenly, you see the dark, cruel eyes of a kiwi bird, about to stab you with its beak. This is what WON'T happen when drinking a St. Supéry Estate Napa Valley Moscato.
Because, you see, the St. Supéry Estate Napa Valley Moscato is full of flavors like mango, honeydew, stone fruit and orange rind. It contains a nose of peach and lime zest. And yes, it's full of kiwi. But kiwi the FRUIT, not kiwi the BIRD.
Now, we're not saying kiwi the bird lacks style and grace. Everyone we've talked to tells us that kiwi the bird is charming, and enjoyable, and the sort of bird you'd want to come and hang out at your party. But to drink? That's when you want the flavors of kiwi the FRUIT. And that's what the St. Supéry Estate Napa Valley Moscato offers you, with a few other additional flavors we've already mentioned above and that we're not going to repeat here because you should have been paying attention.
Drink the fruit, adore the bird. That's the St. Supéry Estate Napa Valley Moscato way.

The year started with very cold conditions and high rainfall. Winter was said to have the fourth highest rainfall in 40 years. Spring moved temperatures up into the 70s, with late May bringing more rain. June began with significant rainfall during flowering, reducing crop yield. The summer provided good sunshine, although it was cooler than summer’s past. Late August and September were warm and encouraged good ripening. Overall 2011 was a cool season that provided intense, rich Moscato.
After achieving the desired flavors on the vine, the Muscat Canelli was harvested in the cool morning hours in an effort to preserve the delicate flavors. The fruit was received in the cellar, where the grapes were pressed to tank and immediately chilled and settled prior to fermentation. All fermentation occurred in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures to maintain and enhance the natural flavors. The final blend was completed soon thereafter to capture the lovely bright qualities and intensity of flavor of this varietal.
