Barefoot Fruitscato Moscato
Sweet fruit Moscato from California, chilled and ready to pour.
The story behind Barefoot Fruitscato
Barefoot Fruitscato starts with Moscato, the Muscat grape that carries peach and apricot in its skin, fermented cool in California's San Joaquin Valley to keep those aromatics intact. The umbrella Barefoot name dates to Davis Bynum in 1965, was rebuilt as Barefoot Cellars in 1986 by Michael Houlihan and Bonnie Harvey, and has been made by E. & J. Gallo of Modesto since 2005. Fruitscato is the fruit-forward branch of that family.
What separates it from a plain Moscato is the blend: natural fruit flavors and grape juice go into the base wine, so the fruit reads as juice rather than suggestion. Nothing sees oak. The whole line is non-vintage and bottled under screw cap, lightly spritzy, and built to be drunk young and cold. We have poured it for Long Island customers for years.
