100% semillon, hand picked, whole-bunch pressed, only made in some years. Matured for 18 months in seasoned French oak. The fruit has piercing intensity of flavour on the tongue; ginger spice, Italian mountain herbs, white pepper, stone fruit, apple and pear blossom, crunchy sea salt flakes and something else dry and salty in there … dried kelp perhaps.

There is a complexity of flavour that I have not yet seen from this wine. Raspberry, strawberry and cranberry with hints of porcini mushroom and cured meat.

Drawn from hand-harvested grapes, a good portion of the vines are rooted in the prime calcareous soils of Serralunga. Massolino’s Moscato is more savoury and complex than the more typical examples. As always, this is bursting with […]

The wine is streamlined and tight with forest berry, blackcurrant and spice. It is taut and silky, showing fruit that has been shaped by cool nights […]
