Moscato d’Asti d’Ampes by Pietro Rinaldi showcases the aromatic character of Moscato Bianco in an elegant, naturally sweet style. The grapes come from vineyards in Madonna di Como, in the municipality of Alba, at an altitude of 340–380 metres above sea level. Eastern exposure and soils rich in white marl, limestone and clay contribute to the character of the fruit. The vines are trained using the Guyot system, with yields of approximately 90 quintals per hectare.
Harvest generally takes place around mid-September, with the grapes picked by hand. Fermentation takes place in pressurised tanks at 18°C. The process is carefully controlled by chilling the must and is followed by sterile filtration, preserving the wine’s aromatic freshness and characteristic sweetness.
In the glass, it displays a pale straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections. The nose is intense and fragrant, offering notes of white flowers and peach. On the palate, the sweetness is refined and balanced by an expansive, aromatic expression of fresh fruit and delicate acacia honey. The result is a generous yet graceful wine, full of fragrance and flavour.
Serve well chilled at 5–6°C. It pairs beautifully with desserts, particularly the traditional Piedmontese hazelnut cake, and is also worth trying alongside fresh, unripened cheeses, where its sweetness creates a pleasing contrast.
