Piemonte Moscato Passito DOC
Piemonte Moscato Passito DOC
500mL
Vineyard: the grapes come from our farmstead in Valle San Giovanni, between Nizza Monferrato and Canelli.
Vinification: moscato grape selection takes place late in the fall. At the time of harvest, the grapes are decidedly overripe and already begin the drying phase on the vine. The harvested grapes are then placed on racks and set out to dry in the estate’s farmhouse. Immediately after crushing, the must is introduced into small barrels, in which fermentation takes place and lasts for a long period. It is bottled after a long aging in small oak barrels.
It is generally marketed 10 years after harvest, and this fine wine is produced only in excellent vintages.
Nose: intense and pleasant fine bouquet. A progression of olfactory sensations reminiscent of dried fruits such as fig and apricot and candied fruits such as orange peel, accompanied by sweet notes.
Color: the deep amber color immediately manifests the wine's texture.
Palate: very persistent in the mouth without becoming cloying thanks to a good balance between acidity and residual sugar.
