Dessert wine made with Primitivo grapes from 30 to 50 years old vines cultivated in sandy soil using the alberello pugliese (little Apulian tree) method. After maceration in temperature-controlled glass-coated cement vats until the sugar content is below 80-100 grams per liter at the fermentation temperature of 27°-30°C (80.6°-86°F,) the wine is stored partly in French and American oak barriques, partly in glass coated cement vats, and partly in iron vats, and combined before bottling.
Intense red in color, the wine has strawberry and wild berry perfume. Pairs well with cheese platters and other end-of-meal offerings. |

Ventisei means twenty six in Italian. That's because the grapes used to make this wine come from 26 rows comprising 3,200 vines, which produce an average of 4,800 kilograms (about 10,582 pounds) per year of superior Moscato d'Asti.
This traditional sparkling wine has a light golden yellow color and fragrant aroma typical of the grapes, reminiscent of peach blossom, acacia and honey. Sweet and fragrant to the palate, the wine keeps all its olfactory promises.
Excellent with cakes, pastries and cookies. The low alcohol content, makes it a perfect wine for social gatherings. |

| Comments: |
One-of-a-kind, golden yellow wine, with perfume of flowers and intense honey, almond and dried fruit notes. To the palate it is sweet and harmonic, elegant, mellow and seductive, pleasantly persistent and gratifying. It may be drunk as meditation wine, but pairs magnificently with Sardinian pastry, amaretto cookies, desserts and herb-flavored cheeses.
At Verona's 38th Vinitaly this wine was awarded the Gran Menzione award. |

| Comments: |
The specially selected grapes for Recioto production are harvested at the beginning of October then allowed to rest in specially-made frames kept in dry, airy places. They are pressed at the beginning of the following year.
The juice is then immediately cooled down and, after one or two days of rest at low temperature, is decanted twice before letting it ferment with selected yeast, keeping the temperature under control during the whole process.
The color is bright golden, the fragrance intense, with floral notes. The body is strong and harmonic. The bouquet is velvety, fruity with light notes of honey. Long lasting, pleasant aftertaste reminiscent of bitter almonds.
This wine complements most desserts, including cheese platters. |
