PRODUCTION ZONE
The vineyards are situated in San Rocco Seno d’Elvio (Alba)
at a medium elevation and with varying exposures to the sun.
Elevation: 270 metres above sea level

VINES AND SOIL
2.5 hectares: vines of approximately 20 years of age on
Lequio formations (grey marl alternating with sand layers)

GRAPE VARIETY
White Moscato

HARVEST
Hand-picked over the first ten days of September

VINIFICATION
White Moscato grapes are soft-pressed immediately following
the harvest to extract the free-run must.
Fermentation is carried out in pressure tanks at 15-16° C until
alcohol by volume reaches 4-5% and approximately 2 bars of
pressure. The wine is cooled to 0° C to halt fermentation.
The wine is then filtered and ready for bottling.

PRESENTATION
Available format: 0.75 l
Alcohol content 4.5-5% by volume depending on the vintage
Straw-yellow colour with gold highlights, occasionally with a
pale green tinge.
Unique nose with sage, lemon, linden, and acacia notes;
fruit sensations such as apricot and peach.
Enjoy its sweet yet tart disposition.

WHEN
Crisp and young to maintain its bead and heady perfumes.
And if laid down for a few years?
It develops the intriguing notes of a passito wine.

HOW
Store in a dark, dry place at constant temperature, below 20° C.
Serve at 6°-8° C, in a wide-mouthed champagne coupe to
conserve the showy flourish of its nose.

CLASSIC PAIRING
A sweet wine calls for a sweet pairing.
Fruit tarts, hazelnut tart with zabaglione, traditional
dove-shaped Easter cake or panettone?
The choice is yours. You could sip it after a summer dinner or
pour it over a fresh fruit salad.

UNUSUAL PAIRING
Always paired with desserts, try it also with or on top
of ice cream. Be intrepid and try it with oysters or spicy
samosas for a daring aperitif.
