Moscato Giallo FRANZ HAAS

Franz Haas Moscato Giallo is an aromatic white wine vinified in a dry version, capable of expressing great finesse and freshness thanks to the Alpine context of South Tyrol. As for production, the grapes come from vineyards located between 400 and 450 metres above sea level, raised in Guyot and characterised by favourable exposures and soils composed of sand and clay. After the harvest, the destemmed grapes undergo a short maceration on the skins to promote aromatic extraction, followed by a soft pressing. The must ferments at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks and the wine subsequently ages on the lees for about five months, also in steel, in order to enhance the aromatic profile and maintain freshness intact.
