Moscato d'Asti produced by Prunotto is an intense straw yellow color. The nose presents the characteristic aroma of the Muscat Blanc grape together with notes of acacia honey and hawthorn blossoms. Its full palate is vigorous and elegant with a pleasing and fresh balanced finish.
Harvest and Vinification
Grapes were hand harvested and crushed before being pressed. The must was left in the press for a short period of time to extract aromas from the skins to the juice. The first-pressing must was separated from the lees by static must settling, a natural process to remove sediment and clarify the wine. Alcoholic fermentation took place but was halted when the alcohol level reached 5%, interrupted by chilling the wine. The wine was clarified, filtered and then bottled.
