The Asti Spumante 'Collection 60 Months' by Ca' d'Gal is the emblem of the great sparkling wine tradition of Piedmont in creating refined dessert wines with Moscato Bianco grapes. Thanks to the use of the Martinotti or Charmat Method, the sparkling wine retains all the scents and aromas of an aromatic grape like Moscato Bianco, an ancient vine present in many regions of Europe, which has found its promised land in the province of Cuneo. Its aromas of orange blossom, citrus, white peach, its harmonious, fresh, and savory sip, accompanied by a creamy and soft perlage, make it an ideal companion for all leavened desserts, particularly: Panettone, Pandoro, and Colomba.
The Asti Spumante 'Collection 60 Months' by Ca' d'Gal is produced with Moscato Bianco, grown in the estate located in Santo Stefano Belbo, in the Valdivilla area. This wonderful hilly area of Cuneo features gentle south-facing slopes on sandy soils, which naturally limit production and yield grapes with refined and elegant aromas. The manual harvest usually takes place around the beginning of September, and the grapes are vinified in white with soft pressing and subsequent fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The base wines, after a brief aging, are made to referment in autoclave according to the Martinotti or Charmat Method. A process that allows for the preservation of the rich array of primary aromas characteristic of Moscato Bianco. It then ages for 60 months in the cellar.
The Asti Spumante 'Collection 60 Months' produced by the Piedmontese winery Ca' d'Gal genuinely and straightforwardly returns the true taste of the Moscato grape, in its most sincere and vital varietal expression. A wine with an ancient taste, which brings us back to the best traditions of the Monferrato area. In the glass, it presents a beautiful light straw color with subtle greenish reflections. The foam is fine, soft, and persistent. The aromatic profile opens with delicate scents of orange blossom and white flowers, citrus aromas, apple, and yellow peach, with hints of herbal notes. The attack on the palate is of balanced freshness, with juicy fruit that accompanies the sip towards a harmonious, slightly savory finish.
