Description
What kind of wine is it
La Spinetta Moscato Biancospino is a sweet organic white wine crafted by La Spinetta, a true expression of Moscato d’Asti. Made from Moscato Bianco grapes, it stands out for its delicate style, characterised by a well-balanced natural sweetness and a subtle effervescence. On the nose, it releases clear aromas of orange blossom, lemon and mandarin. The palate is enveloping, with hints of peach and apricot, finishing with a pleasant mineral streak in a long and clean finish. This wine is also suitable for those following a vegan diet.
Where does it come from
This Moscato d’Asti originates in Piedmont, between the towns of Coazzolo and Castagnole delle Lanze. The grapes come from old vineyards cultivated according to organic farming principles, situated at around three hundred metres above sea level with a privileged southern exposure. These conditions favour optimal ripening, defining the wine’s rich aromatic profile. The marl-limestone soils with sandy traces impart remarkable finesse, helping to shape the typical and refreshing mineral texture perceived on the palate.
How is it produced
The process involves fermentation in a pressurised tank at a controlled temperature, a technique that preserves the fruit’s fragrance while enhancing its floral and citrus notes. In the glass, it appears an intense yellow with lively greenish highlights, accompanied by a delicate effervescence. Tasting reveals a smooth sip, where sweetness is constantly balanced by freshness. It is excellent served as an elegant aperitif or paired with hazelnut desserts and creamy chocolate cakes.
History and Curiosities
Founded in 1977 in Castagnole delle Lanze by the vision of Giuseppe Rivetti, the La Spinetta estate built its excellence starting precisely with Moscato.
