Caudrina La Caudrina

The estate's first Moscato d'Asti, a lightly sparkling, sweet and floral wine that gave the winery its name.

Tasting notes

Deep straw yellow. Aromatic, with delicate floral nuances. Sweet, pleasantly acidic, with a delicate, persistent aroma. Naturally lightly sparkling.

Pairs well with

A dessert wine that goes with dry pastries, panettone or the Easter colomba; its moderate alcohol also makes it a refreshing summer drink.

Vinification
Hand-picked grapes are gently pressed and the must is clarified and filtered, then kept in refrigerated tanks until it is processed in autoclave with selected yeasts at controlled temperature, giving a naturally lightly sparkling wine. The process is the same for all the estate's Moscato wines; the character differs by vineyard of origin.
