Moscato D'Asti DOCGVentisei Ventisei

Region: Piedmont
Producer: Azienda Vitivinicola Colledoro di Clara G. Ambrosio
Vintage: 2005
Grapes: Moscato d'Asti 100%
Alcohol Vol.: 5.5%
Type of wine: Dry
Bottle: 750 ml
Bottles in case: 6 bottles
Yearly production: 3,000 bottles
To US market: 2,000 bottles
Comments: 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.

Recioto di Soave DOCG "Tre Colli" ("Three Hills")

Buy now!
Region: Veneto
Producer: Azienda Agricola T•E•S•S•A•R•I
Vintage: 2002
Grapes: Garganega 100%
Alcohol Vol.: 15% by Vol.
Type of wine: Dessert Wine
Bottle: 500ml
Bottles in case: 6
Yearly production: 3,000 bottles
To US market: 2,000 bottles
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.
