Saracco's Moscato from Castiglione Tinella carries a century of Piedmontese tradition. Intense and elegant, with the grape's signature fruity aromatics balanced by a pleasant acidity that keeps the sweetness honest. A lingering finish that tastes like family memory.
Winemaker Notes
Intense, elegant and lingering. The sweet sensations are well balanced with a pleasant acidity and fruity aromas typical of Muscat grapes.
About the Producer
The village of Castiglione Tinella, where the Saracco winery is located, is between two of the most well-known Piedmontese towns for great wine and food: Alba and Santo Stefano Belbo. Luigi Saracco, the great-grandfather of Paolo, began growing Moscato grapes here in the early 1900s. Paolo Saracco grew up in the vineyards and even at an early age he had a desire to make a wine using his family's name. Upon completion of his enological studies, he began experimenting not only with new winemaking techniques but also a more modern vineyard management style. Paolo Saracco also has a four-star hotel, Albergo Castiglione, adjacent to the vineyards
