2022 Cascina Lieto 'Sensazione', Piedmont, Italy
$65.00
Moscato and Cortese are picked a day apart, 19th and 20th September respectively. Grapes are de-stemmed and crushed, but kept separate. Moscato ferments in fibreglass, whilst Cortese is in 500L open-top plastic tubs. In 2020 the Moscato spent 3 weeks on the skins, Cortese both with regular punch downs during fermentation. After a first racking both varieties feed into fibreglass where they are rested for a whole year before blending and bottling. Once bottled, the wines spends a further 12 months ageing sur latte before being released
