Emilio Vada Campbianc

A sweet, lightly sparkling Moscato d'Asti from 100% Moscato bianco di Canelli, stopped at 5 degrees of alcohol to keep the balance of acidity and sugar.

Tasting notes

Straw yellow with a fine, elegant perlage. Intensely fresh on the nose, with peach, apricot and sage. Sweet and aromatic on the palate, with the fruity notes typical of Moscato and a pleasant finish.

Vinification
The grapes are softly pressed so that only the most aromatic juice is used. The must goes into an autoclave, where fermentation starts by raising the temperature and letting the natural yeasts work. When the alcohol reaches 5 degrees and acidity, sugar and alcohol are in balance, the temperature is lowered and fermentation stops. The wine is then microfiltered and bottled at about 2 atm.
