This luscious Moscato is made at the Rivetti Massimo winery, located in Nieve in Piedmont. The grapes, grown on one of three vineyards owned by the winery, are from the hills of lower Langa in the heart of Piedmont.
The winery has about 50 acres of planted vineyards — Garassino in Mango, La Palazzina in Alba, and the oldest vineyard, with vines up to 50 years old, Froi in Nieve. It is from this prime vineyard, Froi, that we get this golden "Drink of the Gods."
Made from Organic Grapes!
Delightfully sweet and fizzy, this wonderful Moscato is made from partially fermented juice, making the wine big, full and rich in body, with tantalizing notes of orange swirling around the glass.
