DESCRIPTION
Coppo is a historic winery founded in Canelli, Piedmont, in 1892, and Moncalvina is its Moscato d'Asti DOCG from the Canelli subzone. Canelli is considered the finest area for Moscato, and the grape has been grown there since the 13th century. The vineyards sit at 200 to 280 meters on calcareous marl, facing south to southeast.
The grapes are hand-picked, softly pressed and fermented slowly in stainless steel at a cool temperature. Fermentation stops at about 5% alcohol, and the carbon dioxide stays in the wine, giving it a light, natural fizz. Expect a bright yellow color with pale golden glints, fine bubbles and fresh aromas of peach, pear and citrus blossom. Sweet and gently sparkling, but fresh enough that it never feels heavy.
Serve well chilled, around 45 to 50°F, in a white wine glass or flute. Drink it on its own as an afternoon sipper, or with cakes, cookies, fruit tarts or panettone. For something local, try it with Robiola di Roccaverano, a traditional Piedmont goat cheese.
Bottle size: 750ml
