Growing Conditions
Grapes are selected from the south-east facing hillside of the Scrapona vineyard.
Strevi, Bagnario Valley, Scrapona hill.
Vineyard planted in 1996, using the wood from the old vines previously planted here. The soil is mainly sand and marl, with south-west exposure.
Winemaking
Moscato grapes are selected and dried following an ancient technique whereby the warmth of the sun and the blowing of the wind naturally concentrate the fruit’s sugars.
After two months of drying on straw mats the grapes are softly pressed. Selected skins are left to ferment with the must at controlled temperatures for about 1 month.
Then the wine is aged in old barrels for two years.
Aging
2 years
Appearance
Intense yellow gold with amber highlights
Food Pairing
Excellent way to end a meal with confectionary or pastries as well as with cheeses, including blue-veined, foie gras and patè.
