Cordero San Giorgio

Exergia Moscato d'Asti DOCG

    • Description :

      Vineyard: The vineyards are located in San Giorgio di Castiglione Tinella , in Langhe area (Piedmont), and are characterized by mainly calcareous soil with sandy veins. The average age of the vines is about 40 years: the oldest was planted in the 50s and the youngest in 2012.
      Winemaking: After a selection of the best grapes, a soft pressing is carried out to preserve the most aromatic part, followed by natural cold settling. The must is stored in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of -3 °C. The alcoholic fermentation takes place in an autoclave and, upon reaching about 5% vol., it interrupted by rapid refrigeration. In order to preserve its fragrant aromaticity and freshness, the Moscato does not undergo malolactic fermentation and, after sterile filtration, it is cold bottled.
