Wine – Making Process: For this Moscato, like for our reserve wines, the grapes are picked, arranged in cases and pressed fresh. The aromatic free-run must is then let to decant naturally at cold temperatures and stored until re-fermentation that is done in steel vats.
Features: Our Moscato is grown in the production area of Alta Langa, vineyards at a higher altitude on cooler hills with good atmospheric temperature range, promoting the creation of terpenes and aromas. Moscato D’Asti DOCG Bava maintains the original grape aroma fragrant and intact: a balance between the sweetness and the freshness of its natural liveliness. Strongly aromatic with an explosive bouquet of flowers and fruit. The palate is intense, sweet and persistent with balanced acidity. The little bubbles harmoniously match its sweetness and complete its elegance by bringing in the glass the essence and the fragrance of the grapes of origin.
Pairings: Great choice to finish a meal, it pairs elegantly with a dessert such as plain sponge cake, fruit tarts, custard cream and more. However, for the farm labourers who used to work the land in Piedmont, it was customary to drink Moscato with savoury snacks, such as salami with figs or melon, hot spicy dishes like Indian food and molluscs. You can also use it as an ingredient for several cocktails and sorbets.
