Arrival of grapes and fermentation

Direct press, spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel tank, until reaching 5.5 degrees of alcohol. Once this level is reached, fermentation is stopped by bringing the partially fermented must to a low temperature. A light filtering precedes bottling. Anima della Terra is currently our only DOCG production and is our only technical wine, as well as our only bottle to use a cork stopper (produced according to the specifications of Moscato di Canelli and Moscato d'Asti DOCG).

Refinement

Bottling in the winter of the same harvest. Minimal addition of sulfur dioxide.

Notes
The festive wine of Piedmont! Notes of chamomile, wildflower honey, elderflower. Pleasantly sweet but also refreshing thanks to it’s good balance and aromatic notes.

Suggested pairings

Ideal at the end of a meal with dry pastries and at Christmas with pandoro and panettone. It can also be paired with exotic and spicy dishes. A wine for a family toast, as per local family tradition.

Service

We recommend serving this wine at a temperature of 6-8°C.
