Production & Heritage

E & J Gallo Winery was founded in 1933 in Modesto, California, by brothers Ernest and Julio Gallo. Andre Pink Moscato is produced using the Charmat method, in which secondary fermentation takes place in large pressurized stainless steel tanks rather than in individual bottles. This tank fermentation approach preserves the bright, primary fruit aromatics of the Muscat grape and produces a lively, consistent mousse — a deliberate winemaking choice that favors fresh, fruit-forward character over the yeasty complexity associated with traditional-method sparkling wines.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Juicy strawberry and pomegranate lead on the nose, followed by a softer undercurrent of ripe cherry. The aromatic profile is vibrant and immediately inviting, with no hint of yeast or toast.

Taste: The entry is noticeably sweet, with orange and cherry flavors dominating the light-bodied palate. At mid-palate, pomegranate and strawberry join in, supported by lively effervescence that keeps the sweetness from becoming cloying. The acidity is moderate, providing just enough structure to balance the residual sugar.

Finish: The finish is clean and relatively brief, with lingering notes of ripe red berries. A pleasant, sweet fade leaves a refreshing impression that invites another sip.

How to Drink Andre Pink Moscato

Serve well-chilled, between 38–45°F, in a flute or stemmed wine glass to concentrate its fruit aromatics. This sparkling Moscato works best on its own or as a component in fruity, low-ABV cocktails. A Moscato Mimosa pairs the wine with peach or mango juice for a sweeter brunch alternative. A Pink Moscato Sangria uses the wine as a bubbly base with sliced strawberries, raspberries, and a splash of elderflower liqueur. A Sparkling Berry Spritz combines a pour of the Pink Moscato with club soda and muddled blackberries for a light, effervescent warm-weather drink.
