Sweet
Capitolo Uno
By Beppe Marino, Langhe, Piemonte, Italy
A Moscato d'Asti from Canelli, named Capitolo Uno because the family's story starts with Moscato. 5% alcohol, 190 g/l sugar.
Tasting notes
Intense golden yellow recalling ripe grapes. Aromatic, typical Moscato nose, intense, complex and fine, with white flowers, wild rose, white peach and yellow fruit, at times sage and musk. Effervescent and consistent, with a good balance of sugar and acidity.
Pairs well with
Perfect with dry cakes, tarts and classic desserts; also with fresh cheeses, cured meats and Bra sausage. Can be sipped at the end of a meal as a meditation wine.
