VINIFICATION
Manual selection of the grapes, then direct pressing. Fermentation takes place into different containers: medium toasted French oak barriques for Moscato D'Asti and steel vats for Sauvigno Blanc. The process occurs at a temperature of l6°C - l8°C.
AGING
in French oak barriques for Moscato D'Asti, in stainless steel vats for Sauvigno Blanc, on fine lees (Battonage) for 6 months. In March, the wines decant and are racked to remove the natural sediments. Before bottling in April, the wines are blended and filtrated to become clear. Further 2 months refinement in bottles before leaving the cantina.
SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS
At sight nice straw yellow color. The nose is aromatic and gives hints of thyme and lily of the valley, mixed with exotic notes of mango and orange blossom. Its remarkable freshness, sweetness with a decidedly sapid finale makes Musa particularly recommended for aperitifs, aged cheese, cold cuts such as raw ham and speck, oysters, shellfish and fish in general.
