Description
The Leonhard Piemonte Moscato Secco DOC from Mongioia is a wine born in the heart of Piedmont, a region renowned for its winemaking tradition and unique hilly landscapes. The vineyards from which this wine originates are located in the Langhe, an area characterized by calcareous and clayey soils that give the grapes particular organoleptic characteristics. The hills of the Langhe, with their favorable microclimate, offer ideal conditions for the cultivation of white Moscato, a grape variety that finds one of its most authentic expressions here. White Moscato is an aromatic grape variety distinguished by its intense aromas and freshness. In the vineyards of Mongioia, these grapes are cultivated with great attention to sustainability and respect for the land. Harvesting is done manually, selecting only the best bunches to ensure the highest quality of the final product. The winemaking process of Leonhard Piemonte Moscato Secco involves fermentation at a controlled temperature, which allows the preservation of the characteristic aromas of Moscato and results in a dry, balanced, and pleasantly aromatic wine. After fermentation, the wine is aged for a period that enhances its structure and complexity. The aging takes place in steel, a material that maintains the wine's freshness and liveliness, allowing the typical fruity and floral notes of white Moscato to emerge. The result is an elegant wine with an aromatic bouquet ranging from white flowers to citrus, perfect for accompanying light dishes and appetizers. The Leonhard Piemonte Moscato Secco represents a modern interpretation of a traditional grape variety, combining innovation and respect for Piedmontese tradition. Pairings: The Leonhard Piemonte Moscato Secco Doc lends itself to a variety of gastronomic pairings thanks to its freshness and versatility. This wine pairs well with fish-based dishes, such as sea bass carpaccio or seafood salad, as its acidity balances the natural sweetness of the fish. Another interesting pairing is with Asian cuisine, particularly dishes with spicy or slightly spicy notes, such as a light curry or steamed shrimp dumplings. Fresh cheeses, like robiola or buffalo mozzarella, also harmonize perfectly with its lightness. Finally, a pairing with white meats, such as a chicken breast with aromatic herbs, can further enhance the wine's characteristics, offering a balanced and pleasant tasting experience.
