St. James Winery’s Moscato has a new look this spring! But don’t worry because inside the bottle, it’s the same great wine you’ve come to know and love.

“>Moscato has a delicate nose filled with the aromas of dried apricot and pineapple. A semi-sweet white wine, our Moscato is a combination of crisp nectarine and apricot flavors, plus juicy notes of tropical fruit that culminate in a neat, clean finish. Moscato tastes great with salty bagel chips and Blue or Gorgonzola cheeses.

Fresh off gold medal wins at the Florida State Fair International and Jerry Mead’s New World International, “>St. James Winery Moscato is a great value at under $13/bottle (& case discounts apply!).

Drink a Peach

fruit wine, sweet wine, white wine

These late summer days leave us wanting to stop and buy a bushel of peaches from a roadside stand. It’s all sunny days, blue skies, and soft breezes blowin’.

Get in the groove of National Peach Month with St. James Winery’s delicious Peach Wine. With its fresh from the orchard peach taste, it’s the next best thing to biting into a juicy, ripe peach.

Mix it for a Soft Fuzzy Navel cocktail.
Serve a pitcher of Ginger Peach Tea with dinner.
Try a peach wine inspired main: Just Peachy Chicken.
Go southern with Praline and Peach Wine Cobbler and ice cream.
Or indulge in Peach Almond Cake with a glass of peach wine alongside.

And our Peach Wine is absolutely wonderful all by itself, and we’ve got the proof. Just this summer it brought home gold medals at the LA International Wine Competition (scoring 90/100 points!) and at Indy International.

press release, st. james winery

Wine lovers around the world have gone just a bit mad for the fragrant light-bodied white wine, and in response to this wave of Moscato mania, St. James Winery is re-introducing its Moscato wine.

“Moscato wines have been enjoying a renewed popularity with the wine drinking public, and our customers have been asking for St. James Winery to bring back the Moscato we had produced several years ago,” said Peter Hofherr, CEO of St. James Winery.

“Last fall we introduced a Sparkling Moscato, and after the rapid sell-out we saw with that, we decided to re-introduce our still wine Moscato to the wine list. So the good news is, St. James Winery’s Moscato is back, and it’s better than ever! Customers should begin seeing it on the shelves later this summer.”

“St. James Winery’s new Moscato is truly luscious,” said Andrew Meggitt, executive winemaker at St. James Winery. “The flavor profile combines crisp nectarines and apricots, with juicy notes of tropical fruit, and coming together with a neat, clean finish. This wine also has a very nice, very delicate nose–just like dried apricot and pineapple. Plus, it’s golden color makes it a great late-summer wine to enjoy as the seasons start to turn.”

The love affair wine drinkers have with St. James Winery’s Moscato is no surprise, especially considering the variety of ways it can be enjoyed. This is a wonderful wine for a weekend brunch, it’s perfect as an aperitif, and delicious with cheeses or antipasto. Moscato also shines when paired with fruit-based desserts like pies, cobblers, and tarts. Its tremendous flexibility makes it a perfect all-purpose wine for just about any occasion.

Look for bottles of St. James Winery Moscato in select stores where St. James wines are sold. St. James Winery, the largest and most awarded winery in Missouri, has been making exceptional wines for more than 40 years. Learn more about St. James Winery at stjameswinery.com.
