Metodo Classico VSQ Bio – Colli Orientali Del Friuli DOC – Moschioni
Moschioni VSQ Metodo Classico is produced in minimal quantities.
Winemaking:
It is a distinctive organic sparkling wine crafted using the traditional Champagne method. This wine blends Chardonnay and the native Friulian grape, Ribolla Gialla. The grapes are hand-picked at the beginning of September, and the base wine is aged for several months in stainless steel tanks before undergoing a secondary fermentation in the bottle. It then matures on its lees for 30 months, developing a fine perlage.
Tasting Notes:
The aroma begins with citrus notes of bergamot and citron peel, which gradually evolve into more mature fruit scents such as peach, pineapple, and mango. A delicate floral hint of lime blossom can also be detected. As the wine warms, it reveals a subtle sweetness accompanied by brioche notes. On the palate, it is soft yet fresh, with an appealing minerality
