Organoleptic card

Fascinating, sensual and fascinating wine that does not fear comparison even when the moscato is vinified dry since it lends itself perfectly as an aperitif. In addition to the evident notes of yellow fruit pulp, citrus fruits and chamomile notes, it also reveals its own charm to the taste that captures the attention of lovers of this kind of wine which, in the panorama of whites in its category, makes it a soloist and a precious jewel.
