Moscato D’Asti Canelli - Cascina Fonda

The Moscato D’Asti Canelli from the hand of Cascina Fonda in Piedmont displays a brilliant, golden-yellow color in the swirled glass. This varietal Italian wine presents wonderfully fragrant and complex notes of mirabelle plum, peach, pear, and apple in the glass. There are also hints of walnut.

On the palate, the light-footed Cascina Fonda Moscato D’Asti Canelli shows an incredibly fruity taste, which is by no means coincidental given its off-dry profile. On the tongue, this light-footed dessert wine is characterized by an exceptionally silky, creamy, dense, and velvety texture. The finish of this dessert wine from the Piedmont wine-growing region ultimately convinces with a beautiful aftertaste. The aftertaste is also accompanied by mineral facets from the marl-dominated soils.

Vinification of Cascina Fonda Moscato D’Asti Canelli

The elegant Moscato D’Asti Canelli from Italy is a varietal wine, vinified from the Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains grape (Gelber Muskateller). The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Piedmont. Here, the vines drive their roots deep into marl soils. After the grape harvest, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There, they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the Moscato D’Asti Canelli can continue to harmonize on the fine lees for a few months.
