WINE DESCRIPTION
Villa Pozzi Moscato is created by 4th and 5th generation winemakers, Daniele and his son Matteo. Their family estate vineyards are situated in the Marsala region of Sicily. This volcanic island that lies off the coast of Italy is known for giving fresh, mineral-driven wines despite its southerly location. This highly aromatic wine is vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats to preserve the inherent fruitiness of the grape variety before it is bottled early to retain freshness and purity.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Villa Pozzi Moscato is a delightful Italian white wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Moscato grape.It displays a medium straw color and fragrant floral notes of orange peel and orange blossom, which are complemented by hints of ripe peach and dried mango. The palate shows a round texture, that is further enhanced by the sweetness. The balance is suitably redressed by soft acidity that complements the flavors of juicy white peaches, tropical fruits. The wine's light body and low alcohol content make it a perfect choice for those who prefer a lighter, sweeter style.
