Description
What kind of wine it is
Dindarello by Maculan is a sweet white wine that purely expresses the qualities of Moscato Bianco. In the glass, it displays a straw yellow colour, introducing an aromatic profile dominated by intense honey and floral notes. On the palate, it reveals a sweet and full sip, excellently balanced by a clear freshness that makes it easy and pleasant to drink. Thanks to its long-lasting flavour, it pairs perfectly with petits fours, fruit tarts and creamy desserts, and is also ideal for accompanying artisan focaccia at the end of a meal.
Where it comes from
This sweet wine originates from Breganze, an area in Veneto historically dedicated to viticulture. The vines grow on hills characterised by volcanic soils with a marked tuffaceous component, elements that enhance the aromatic density and a solid organoleptic balance. The production area enjoys a mild climate, thanks to the protection offered by the Asiago Plateau, which shields the vines from cold currents. In this context, Maculan makes the most of the best-suited soils, working with a dedication that reflects a deep knowledge of the land.
How it is produced
Vinification begins with drying in a fruit loft, a stage of about a month during which the grape bunches are placed in crates to naturally concentrate sugars and aromas. After pressing, the must ferments at a controlled temperature in stainless steel vats. Ageing involves a two-month rest in steel, a deliberate choice to preserve the integrity of the fruit. The process concludes with a three-month rest in glass, a crucial step to stabilise the wine while maintaining the typical freshness of Moscato Bianco.
History and Curiosities
Born in Breganze, sheltered by the Asiago Plateau, Bianco Passito Dindarello reflects the dedication of the Maculan family winery, which has been tending the vineyards for three generations. The term Passito refers to the traditional treatment of the grapes during the harvest: the bunches are picked into crates and left to wither slightly for about a month, a historic artisanal practice that enriches the final product.

It was grandfather Giovanni who founded the actual winery, in 1947. Between the ‘50s and ‘60s he specialized in producing substantial quantities of white and red wines, which he distributed in large-sized bottles to osterie, trattorias and grocers’ shops, the so-called "casoini".
The revolution – from a quality point of view – was the work of Fausto. In 1973, after finishing his studies in Conegliano, he returned to the company and took over the reins of the business. In spite of some initial difficulties, his tenaciousness, thirst for knowledge and desire to experiment in both the vineyards and winery led the young oenologist to become one of the major innovators in Italian wine.
Today, Maria Vittoria and Angela share the running of the estate with their father Fausto. Thanks to their professionalism and enterprise, they represent the future of the Maculan company, focusing on technological innovation, sustainability and internationalization. Read more
