Sweet
Monteolivo
By Bersano, Nizza, Piemonte, Italy
Moscato d'Asti at about 5.5% alcohol, from vineyards around Nizza Monferrato, Incisa Scapaccino and Mombaruzzo. To be drunk young.
Tasting notes
Straw yellow with light golden reflections. Intense aromatic aromas typical of the grape with peach, sage and lemon over acacia flowers. Sweet, intense taste with a finely composed aftertaste, good freshness and a pleasant light sparkle.
Pairs well with
Dessert wine; traditional sweets (panettone, pandoro, colomba), biscuits, tarts, pastries, baked cakes, panna cotta, creams and torrone; fresh or syrupy fruit. With cured meats and sharp or aged cheeses it makes a surprising contrast.
