Moscato Giallo DOC 2019

Vintage

The weather conditions made 2019 a challenging year for our winegrowers. A relatively mild winter and early spring were followed by a wet and cool April and May. After the flowering of the vines, which was not until June, the weather changed and it became hot and dry. In late summer, some rain and below-average temperatures delayed the ripening of the grapes. Harvesting the healthy grapes began in early September and continued until the end of October.

Tasting notes

– bright yellow
– intense aromas of nutmeg and ripe peaches
– juicy, voluminous, a prominent note of acidity lends balance to the pleasant sweetness of the final wine

Recommendation

This dessert wine is an ideal partner to beignets, strudel and cake.

Vinification

Destemming of harvested, but still perfectly sound grapes; 12-hour cold maceration, after which the grapes were pressed and underwent natural clarification; fermentation at a controlled temperature of 18°C; three-month ageing on the fine lees in stainless steel.

Vineyard

South- and east-sloping vineyards at an altitude of 300 – 450 meters above sea level. Loamy, chalky gravel, heat-retaining and well-drained soils.
