This dessert wine uses the same grapes as Erice Moscato, so Zibibbo (Moscato di Alessandria) (95-100%), with permission to add local green grapes (0-5%). The difference in the two wines lies in the vinification, where the grapes are partially dried prior to pressing.
The color is golden-yellow, the aroma is characteristic and persistent. The taste is sweet and harmonious, and therefore goes well with desserts.

Did you know?
Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
So let’s just get one thing straight: at Lombardia (or Lombardy), Italy’s most populated and industrialized region, doesn’t exactly prioritize wine production. Actually, the combined output isn’t that significant, and what is produced is normally consumed locally, especially the wines from Oltrepò Pavese.
