Nose

Palate
Enjoy its sweet yet tart disposition.
Growing Conditions
The vineyards are situated in San Rocco Seno d’Elvio (Alba) at a medium elevation and with varying exposures to the sun.
Elevation: 270 metres above sea level
Harvest
Hand-picked over the first ten days of September
Winemaking
White Moscato grapes are soft-pressed immediately following the harvest to extract the free-run must. Fermentation is carried out in pressure tanks at 15-16° C until alcohol by volume reaches 4-5% and approximately 2 bars of pressure. The wine is cooled to 0° C to halt fermentation. The wine is then filtered and ready for bottling.
Aging
6 months in the bottle
Appearance
Straw-yellow colour with gold highlights, occasionally with a pale green tinge.
Food Pairing
A sweet wine calls for a sweet pairing. Fruit tarts, hazelnut tart with zabaglione, traditional dove-shaped Easter cake or panettone? The choice is yours.
You could sip it after a summer dinner or pour it over a fresh fruit salad. Try it also with or on top of ice cream. Be intrepid and try it with oysters or spicy samosas for a daring aperitif.
