The wine region of Moscato d'Asti
Piedmontese DOCG of the Langhe and Monferrato, the Italian festive wine par excellence. Signature Moscato Bianco (white Muscat à petits grains): a lightly sparkling sweet white (~5. 5% alcohol, 1 bar) with intense signature notes of white peach, fresh apricot, orange blossom, sage, honey and muscaty grape, a fine bubble and lively sugar strung by a crisp acidity — light and delicate. Asti method with interrupted fermentation.
The wine region of Piedmont
Kingdom of Nebbiolo: Barolo and Barbaresco DOCG, long-ageing reds with firm tannins and lively acidity, complex aromas of withered rose, sour cherry, tar, truffle and undergrowth. More accessible, tangy Barbera on red fruit, supple, crisp Dolcetto. Sweet, floral sparkling Moscato d'Asti, mineral, lemony Gavi (Cortese) white, round, almondy Arneis from Roero. 50,000 ha across the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato, UNESCO.
The word of the wine: Bleeding
Old practice for red wines. As soon as the vat is filled with grapes, the tap is opened. A sweet but clear juice escapes from the vat (it can also be used to make rosé). The colour and density of the juice is enhanced, but it should not be overdone. Rarely more than 10% of the volume of a vat, otherwise you risk losing fruit and bringing in bitterness.
