Moscato Giallo DOC 2023

Vintage

The 2023 winegrowing year was characterized by changeable weather and the resulting increased work in the vineyard. A snow-deficient winter and a warm March accelerated the start of vegetation. A typical April and a rainy May led to flowering close to the long-term average. June was unstable, with heat waves and drought. July brought a lot of rain coupled with some very hot days. Despite extreme temperature fluctuations in August, a golden autumn brought us a successful grape harvest with very good grape qualities overall.

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.
