Paolo Picollo feels a special connection to Moscato. As a child, he helped with the harvest alongside the whole family, and in the evenings he would take the grapes to the local co-operative with his grandfather Armando. Now he makes the wine himself, at his own vineyard in Piedmont. The grapes come from a vineyard that is around forty years old, facing west, with a limestone and clay soil, and are hand-picked in late August and early September.
After gentle pressing, the clear juice ferments at a controlled temperature in stainless-steel tanks until the desired sugar content is reached. The wine is then chilled, filtered and bottled with yeast, where it undergoes a second fermentation in the traditional manner, without added sulphites. In the glass, it is straw-yellow. The nose reveals acacia blossom, rose and citrus. On the palate, it is fresh and lively with a sparkling texture, and a hint of sage.
The result is a dry, youthful wine with delicate aromas, a soft mousse and excellent drinkability. It pairs well with aperitifs, starters, light pasta dishes, fish dishes, vegetables and cheese. Serve well chilled at 8–10°C. As no sulphites have been added, the bottle must always be kept cool, between 6 and 18°C, including during transport.
The wine comes directly from the winemakers, they send the bottles themselves.
