Vineyards

The fruit for this wine comes from a co-operative with a long history in the Veneto area. The Moscato is grown in vineyards in the south-east of the Colli Euganei zone on volcanic, calcareous and clay soils.

Vintage information

Harvest takes place in the first and second weeks of September.

Vinification

The grapes are cold-pressed and fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel to preserve the aromatic qualities of the grapes. During fermentation the must was filtered several times. The wine was drawn from the vat with an alcohol content of 5%, then stabilised before being bottled under pressure, to maintain a slight sparkle.

Tasting Notes

Lovely aromatic perfumes of grapes and sherbet. Lightly sparkling and off-dry, with a perfect balance of soft, sweet, grapey fruit with good intensity and lively, fresh acidity.
