Moscata

Moscata

  • Winery: Mongioia
  • Alcoholic Percentage: 14%
  • Description: “Moscata” blends tradition and innovation, elevating Moscato’s elegance and complexity. The name recalls the old term for Moscato grapes. Aged in handcrafted amphorae, the wine undergoes micro-oxygenation, enhancing its depth. It ferments and matures for a year, developing fine, delicate bubbles. With creamy effervescence, it reveals bright citrus and exotic fruit notes like lychee, citron, and passion fruit. Sweet yet balanced, it has a soft texture with a savory, balsamic finish.
  • Grape: Pinot Nero & Barbera
  • Pairings: Excellent with seafood; truly excellent with a buffalo mozzarella topped with generous shavings of tuna bottarga, spaghetti with bottarga, tuna and avocado tartare, peach ice cream, Lucanian‐style salt cod, sweet‐and‐sour rabbit, and Sardinian cookies.
