This aged dessert wine has the same grape composition as the non-aged type, Trentino Superiore Castel Beseno DOC, meaning white Moscato Giallo grape (85-100%), with the permitted addition of local white grapes. (0-15%).
In order for the label to display the name Castel Beseno, the wine must be produced around the villages Calliano, as well as around the neighboring municipality of Besenello, located at the foot of the quite impressive and well-preserved medieval castle, Castel Beseno, in the province of Trento.
