The estate's orange wine, made from Moscato Bianco vines over 50 years old with 10 days on the skins and 11 months in stainless steel.
Tasting notes
Light amber colour. Aromatic and gastronomic, with more tannins and structure than classic white wines. Aromas of honey and dried meadow flowers; fresh, lively acidity.
Pairs well with
White meat and white sauces; spicy chicken or aged cheese
