Moscato d'Asti DOCG Vintage 2021

Tasting Notes

The dessert wine par excellence.  Straw yellow in colour at times quite dark, a quiet, delicate flavour, pleasantly sweet and fresh with moderate acidity.

Aromatic, floral and fruity notes that recall the freshly-gathered grapes.

Grown in the borough of Treiso in a west-facing vineyard.
