Moscato della Torre 2021 - Marabino

Moscato della Torre 2021 - Marabino

Wine dedicated to the Marabino tower, located in the estate Marabino, that is now a splendid relais, is the oldest and most significant building in the territory between Pozzallo and Ispica and its origins date back to the Middle Ages.
The vineyard, in the estate Marabino, is exposed to the West to Spurred Cordon, on calcareous white soils at 50 meters above sea level. The low yield, the light, the winds and the warmth of the place give the Moscato Bianco grapes an original typicality that orbits on the fragrance and finesse. The grapes, harvested and well mature, are placed on the racks of our “baglio”, in white stone of Modica, giving it the light and the heat of August, necessary for the drying of the bunches. It is vinified with the skins, it ferments in steel tanks, then the fermentation is interrupted by the use of cold temperature. It matures in steel tanks until the spring following the harvest. Sweet wine, delicate, well balanced, never cloying.
