Piasa San Maurizio Moscato d'Asti docg Forteto della Luja 2021

Moscato d’Asti Piasa San Maurizio by Forteto della Luja is a sparkling, sweet, fragrant white wine. It shows a beautiful pale yellow color with golden shades and with a creamy and persistent perlage. The nose is floral and fruity with hints of sage, white flowers and honey. The sip is sweet, creamy, aromatic and with a well-balanced acidity. Moscato Piasa San Maurizio is recommended with dessert, ice-cream, dry patisserie and zabaione. The pairing with traditional cold cuts is very pleasant, as well. 

Forteto della Luja is not only a cave, but also an oasis, in the real sense of the word: here the Scaglione family inhabits from more than six generations. The cave goes back up 1700 and in the past it was only used to produce a little part of wine for personal use, while the other part was sold. Moreover, in the past the family produces fruits and cheeses, too. Nowadays Giancarlo Scaglione is the manager of the cave and, together with his sons, produces some wines in a traditional way, without the use of any kind of weed killer in vineyards. The typical wines of this cave are: Forteto della Luja, Forteto Pian Dei Sogni, Le Grive, Mon Ross and Piasa San Maurizio.
