Description
Country: Italy
Region: Sicily
Sub-Region: Noto
Grapes: Grape Moscato 100
Tasting Note:
Fragrant, floral white from the most admired incarnation of
the many-splendoured Muscat grape, exuding jasmine, rose
petals, hibiscus and pink grapefruit, with an appetising blast
of marine air on the finish.
Winemaking:
Vinification: static decanting of the must after destalking and
soft pressing; fermentation and maturation in stainless steel,
at 15⁰C
Vineyard :
White, very calcareous soils, with rich, small-sized skeleton
texture characterized by high water retention capacity. Fine
texture with light-coloured clayey fraction and micro zones of
red sands.
Food matching:
The wine’s fragrant aromas enhance the soft-savoury
contrast of the sea; voluptuous with a herring salad, kind
with a Caprese salad, extraordinary with breaded prawns
and shellfish or creamed tomato and lobster. Sunny and
convivial, it exalts even further a Valencian paella, a fish
couscous or pasta with sea urchins.
