Serving suggestions
Bright golden yellow, a fine and delicate perlage. Notes of exotic fruits and orange zest, peach and apricot. Sweet with subtle aromatic aromas of citrus fruit; the aromatic aftertaste recalls the flavour of the Moscato grape, with pleasant freshness.
While dessert is Moscato’s forte, cheese courses, charcuterie or antipasto plates can be perfect pairings. Its versatility, and the lower alcohol also make it an ideal aperitif candidate.
