As I was at the crib sipping a refreshing glass of Pinot Grigio (my favorite white wine grapes) I thought about the sudden trend regarding Moscato. When did this s#!t become so popular? I've tasted it before, being an alcoholic and all, unable to turn down a drink, and I was not impressed. It's too sweet and doesn't have any bite at all. I like my drinks HARD (pause).
So anyways, I've pretty much focused the direction of my hate towards Drake. Peep game...
Trey Songz ft. Drake Invented Sex
its a celebration
clap, clap bravo
lobster and shrimp
and a glass of moscato
for the girl whos a student
and her friend whos a model
finish the whole bottle
See I can't really hate on the sentiments here. Lobster and shrimp are pretty delicious. And he wants the friend to finish the whole bottle. Such a young lady would likely be inebriated and less uptight, morally. Also Drake is a fellow lightskinned homie, plus I met the man (peep an eaaaaaaaarly entry). Unfortunately, he is to blame.
As a gentleman who is fond of alcohol in it's various forms, I can't be but too mad. But I wonder how the makers of Muscato have been able to cope with it's sudden increase in popularity?
That bottle looks kinda dope...Anyways...
Here's a swipe from a wine blog regarding your beloved Moscato...
Moscato is a sparkling, white, dessert wine and while it doesn't have as much fizz as a champagne, it is a quite a bit sweeter than champagne. The taste always reminds me of fig newton bars mixed with pear. Moscato is made from the Muscat grape and typically comes from Italy although muscat grapes are also grown in Spain, Chile, Australia and other countries and those countries produce their own versions of wine from them. Asti Spumante also comes from the muscat grape and is similiar to moscato with the exception of a little more fizz. My favorite high end moscato wine is the Bartenura brand. They make both a moscato and a malvasia. St. Supery also makes a great moscato. A bottle of this wine will run anywhere from twenty dollars to six dollars a bottle. The Barefoot brand of moscato is the lower end and that brand also has a good flavor. You can pick up a bottle of that for about five or six dollars. Try some moscato with some bleu cheese and put those taste buds to work!

Fellas, don't go out like that tho...please read...
Moscatos and malvasias are the ultimate girly wines. I haven't met a chick yet who doesn't love them. If you are not a big wine drinker, but you would like to start getting into more wine, moscato is the perfect wine to cut your eye teeth on.
In other words, if you're drinking this, please revoke your man card and pull your skirt down, your vagina is showing.
