Vietti Moscato d'Asti Cascinetta

The Vietti Moscato d'Asti Cascinetta grapes are selected from Castiglione Tinella's small vineyards. There are 4,500 plants per hectare; Guyot-cultivated vines have an average age of 40: limestone and clay-rich soil.

Vietti Moscato d'Asti Cascinetta is a bright straw-yellow color with slightly shimmering hints of gold. Intense aromas of ripe yellow fruit (peach, apricot), floral notes (rose petal), and hints of ginger. Sweet and delicate on the palate, with modest acidity and good balance and complexity. Hints of fresh apricot on the finish.

The winemaking begins with the delicate pressing of the grapes and natural cold decanting. The must is stored at a very low temperature in stainless steel tanks to avoid spontaneous fermentation. Throughout the year, individual portions of the must are put in an autoclave at 12-14 degrees to initiate alcoholic fermentation.

When a percentage of around 5.5% alcohol by volume is reached, the temperature is quickly reduced to stop the fermentation. The wine, which is only partially fermented, is then filtered. This Muscat wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation and is bottled using sterile filtration to maintain its natural freshness, aromas, and delicate bubbles. Excellent as an aperitif, it can be enjoyed with fruity and creamy desserts, dry pastries, blue cheeses, and lobster.
