Product Notes

Massolino Moscato d'Asti is a sweet white wine that comes from the Piedmont region of Italy. It is made from the Moscato grape, which is known for its aromatic and floral characteristics.

The sweetness is moderate, making it a perfect dessert wine or a summer aperitif. Massolino Moscato d'Asti stands out among other Moscato wines for its elegant style and refined taste. It pairs well with fresh fruits, light cakes, and creamy desserts.

About the Winery

Massolino

The century-old, family-owned, Italian wine brand of Massolino is one of those wines that stay true to the character and richness of their soil. It was in the year 1896 that the founder of the Massolino label, Giovanni established his wine estate in Serralunga d’Alba, the home of this brand today.

The Massolino wine estate comprises of 23 hectares and the wines made here reflect a deep bond in the process involved right from the cultivation of the vines to the ultimate bottling stage. These vineyards include areas such as the following:

Classic Barolo - This is the home of the indigenous grape varietal, Nebbiolo. Located at a height of around 360m, this 7-hectare vineyard in Serralunga d’Alba has many subzones in it. This helps to create grapes of different spicy and floral notes. You will mostly find calcareous soil in this area.

Margheria - Located at about 340m above sea level, these vineyards comprise an area of 1.5 hectares. Though this vineyard was purchased only in the 1970s, it has become one of the popular cru vineyards of the Massolino family today. The grapes grown here are spicy and have a lot of mineral content in them.

Parafada - This area contains lime soil predominantly and is located at an altitude of about 330m. It covers an area of about 1.13 hectares. The ridge that protects the vines from the strong winds helps to add a lot of character and elegance to the grapes grown here.

Vigna Rionda - Considered as one of the best-located vineyards of this estate, Vigna Rionda encompasses 2.3 hectares and is located at about 330m above sea level. The limestone-rich soil is ideal for creating potent wines.
