Moscato Giallo

I.G.T. (protected geographical indication) Tre Venezie

The homeland of the various Muscat wines is said to be Greece. As far back as Roman times, Cato spoke of them as “apianae” grapes, from the name of the bees that surrounded the most mature bunches, for the strong and intense fragrance that was released from them. Through the intervention of man and as a result of numerous crossings, real varieties were created: white, yellow, pink and red Muscat.

Vinification

The harvested grapes are delicately de-stemmed. Soft pressing follows and the must thus obtained is clarified by decanting. The vinification continues with the alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature (18-20° C) in stainless steel containers, which is interrupted and not carried out completely, so as to give the wine the fresh and sweet taste typical of the variety. The wine is then aged for 3-4 months in stainless steel tanks.

Description

Deep straw yellow colour, slightly sparkling. The nose is full, intense, aromatic, with fruity, floral and spicy notes typical of the Moscato variety bouquet. Its unique and unmistakable flavour is expressed with a mild, never cloying sweetness, excellent balance and aromatic background.

Serving suggestion

Typical end of meal or dessert wine. Excellent with pastries made with yeast dough, stuffed with cream or fruit jams.
