Moscato d'Asti DOCG 2025 Prunotto

What kind of wine it is

Prunotto’s Moscato d’Asti is a white wine belonging to the historic denomination from Piedmont, produced from Moscato Bianco di Canelli grapes. The winemaking involves gentle pressing followed by the start of the alcoholic fermentation, which is carefully halted by refrigeration to preserve the natural sugars. This process creates a dense and full style, characterized by a clear aromatic profile and a harmonious finish. It is a Moscato d’Asti created to express elegance and a clear representation of its varietal.

Where it comes from

The grapes are sourced from the vineyards of the Prunotto estate, located in the heart of the Moscato d’Asti production area, in Piedmont. The origin within this territory results in a wine deeply tied to the expression of Moscato Bianco di Canelli and its typical aromatic intensity. Being in an area historically suited to this variety allows for a precisely defined profile, in which freshness and fruit fragrance remain central and well delineated.

How it is made

Production begins with a manual harvest and a rigorous selection of Moscato Bianco di Canelli grape clusters. After a brief pressing, the free-run must obtained is separated from the lees through a process of natural sedimentation. Alcoholic fermentation then begins, closely controlled and interrupted by lowering the temperature. The wine is finally clarified, filtered, and bottled, with a method designed to preserve its aromatic clarity and gustatory balance.

Tasting Notes

Visually, the wine displays an intense straw yellow color, a sign of good color concentration. The nose reveals a well-defined bouquet distinguished by enveloping notes of acacia honey and hawthorn, clearly echoing the character of Moscato Bianco di Canelli. On the palate, it is dense, full, and harmonious, showing a consistent progression of flavors. The finish offers a pleasant freshness, in harmony with the aromas perceived on the nose.

Food Pairings

This aromatic white pairs naturally with desserts based on fresh fruit and preparations with strawberries, peaches, and infused berries. It is also suitable with dry pastries, as its full structure balances crisp textures without compromising palate harmony. Among traditional matches, pairing with panettone stands out, making it ideal for ending a meal alongside classic Italian baked specialties.

When to serve it

It’s the perfect choice to enjoy during dessert moments when you seek a fragrant glass capable of enhancing sweets and fruit-based dishes. Its marked harmony makes it suitable for sweet snacks and convivial opportunities, offering an enjoyably smooth tasting finish. It is designed for youthful consumption, to fully appreciate the varietal fragrance and aromatic clarity, rather than aiming for prolonged bottle aging.
