About this wine
Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from selected vineyards regarded as particularly suitable for Moscato. The rows are oriented to make effective use of sunlight on both leaves and bunches. The calcareous clay-and-tuff soil contributes finesse and aromatic definition.
Planting density is approximately 4,500 vines per hectare. The vines are trained low using simple Guyot, with the foliage encouraged upward to expose the bunches to sunlight and promote photosynthesis. No more than eight or nine fruiting buds are retained.

Vinification
The grapes are harvested by hand during the first or second ten days of September.

Tasting profile
The colour ranges from pale to deeper straw yellow, with a fine, persistent perlage. The rich, intense and fragrant Moscato aroma evokes wisteria, peach and apricot, complemented by sage, lemon and orange blossom. The palate is sweet, delicate and fresh, with moderate alcohol. Its persistent aromatics and fine bubbles give the wine a complex, structured character while preserving delicacy and freshness.
Serving and pairing
Serve chilled with desserts or assorted pastries. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative wine or as a refreshing drink at any time of day. Its low alcohol makes it suitable for a celebratory toast shared across the table.
