Notes
Moscato Bianco (white Muscat) is a grape variety with ancient origins, appreciated even by the ancient Romans. The grape ripens in mid-September, and the clusters have round berries with a golden color, shading to a warm amber on the parts exposed to the sun. The grape is distinguished by its unmistakable and delightful aroma, even when eaten as a table grape, and this aroma is the strength and character of the wine, which is delicately sweet and effervescent.
