Description
The "Moscadello di Montalcino" is a white DOC wine that goes well with desserts. The production of this wine has an ancient tradition in Montalcino, so much that the Italian poet Ugo Foscolo mentioned it in one of his letters. It is now experiencing a new beginning thanks to the labor of a few passionate vineyard tenders. All of the varieties of Moscadello (Tranquillo - Still, Frizzante - Sparkling, and Vendemmia Tardiva - Late Harvest) are all made from Moscato grapes.

Moscadello di Montalcino obtained its recognition as a DENOMINATION OF CONTROLLED ORIGIN wine with the D.P.R. 13/11/1984, with modifications ensuing subsequently. The rules established by the disciplinary regulations in vigour according to the Decree of 28/9/1995 are as follows:
