\nRare and precious, it is absolutely worth trying!
\n Moscato di Scanzo Docg <\/strong>is a classic meditation wine<\/strong> whose vines are said to have been introduced by the Romans and perhaps before that by the Etruscans.
\nThe municipality of Scanzorosciate<\/strong> is the only place where Moscato di Scanzo, a red berry muscat raisin wine, is produced.
\nWith an enveloping and heady taste, it is soft, velvety and full-bodied on the palate.
\nYou will recognize it just by seeing it, because of its warm ruby red color with purple highlights.
\nAnd who are the two characters depicted on the bottles in the logo of the Consortium of Moscato di Scanzo D.O.C.G.?
\nSimone da Scanzo and Alberico da Rosciate, after whom the territory cradle of this wine was named.
\nThe grapes are made unique by the particular microclimate and limestone-marly formation on which the vines grow, which provides high minerality<\/strong> along with low water availability<\/strong>.
\nThese characteristics are fundamental and make the grapes healthy, fragrant and rich in aroma.
\nThe production specification is very strict.
\nManual harvesting takes place between late September and mid-October, and the meticulously selected grapes are placed in natural drying on racks, in ventilated environments, for a minimum of 21 days.
\nThe stalks are then removed and the grapes pressed, with a maximum wine yield of 30 percent.
\nMoscato is very demanding: it does not tolerate wood, so it is aged in glass and steel containers.<\/strong>
\nIt can be marketed after at least two years from the harvest, starting November 1.
\nTasting it, you will perceive complex and long persistent aroma and smell and hints of plum, jam, rosehip, morello cherry, clary sage and underbrush.
\nEven when young, this wine has notes of tobacco and chocolate that then evolve and amplify with aging. <\/p>\n"}]},{"acf_fc_layout":"filotto","filotto_title":"Experiences not to be missed","filotto_sub":"","filotto_layout":"scroll","filotto_fill":"manual","filotto_items":[{"object":85438,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":85443,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":85448,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":85428,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""}],"filotto_fill_conditions":{"or_filter":[{"and_filters":[{"filter":false,"kind":false,"post_category":false,"post_tag":false,"area":false,"aggr":false},{"filter":false,"kind":false,"post_category":false,"post_tag":[1660],"area":false,"aggr":false}]}],"only_ambassadors":false,"max_elements":"0","show_total":false,"see_all":false,"custom_show_all_page":null,"order_by":"random","order_way":""}},{"acf_fc_layout":"filotto","filotto_title":"The wines of Bergamo","filotto_sub":"","filotto_layout":"scroll","filotto_fill":"auto","filotto_items":[{"object":40923,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40672,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40671,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40822,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40943,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40694,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40846,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40675,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":40829,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""}],"filotto_fill_conditions":{"or_filter":[{"and_filters":[{"filter":false,"kind":false,"post_category":false,"post_tag":[1522],"area":false,"aggr":false},{"filter":false,"kind":false,"post_category":false,"post_tag":[1522,2271],"area":false,"aggr":false}]}],"only_ambassadors":false,"max_elements":"0","show_total":false,"see_all":false,"custom_show_all_page":null,"order_by":"random","order_way":""}}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oggetto\/85470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oggetto"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/oggetto"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/oggetto\/85470\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/75327"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=85470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=85470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=85470"},{"taxonomy":"aggr","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/aggr?post=85470"},{"taxonomy":"area","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/area?post=85470"},{"taxonomy":"kind","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kind?post=85470"},{"taxonomy":"zona","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/visit.valueservice.cloud\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/zona?post=85470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
