MASSOLINO MOSCATO D'ASTI 2022 375ML

Style: Sweet & Luscious 

¿There are many great things to write about Massolino, a family winery based in Serralunga d'Alba. As I reflect on these wines, I am struck by the harmony and perfection of the overall portfolio: the clear identity of each product and its placement within the Massolino quality pyramid and the crescendo of wines that culminates with a truly memorable single-vineyard Baroli and the top-shelf Barolo Riserva Vigna Rionda. The portfolio has a few unexpected surprises too, such as a very elegant Moscato d'Asti and a cheerful Riesling.¿ MONICA LARNER

Massolino¿s Moscato has long been a benchmark example of the style, but it¿s only produced in limited quantities. It's drawn from hand-harvested grapes where a good portion of the vines are rooted in the prime calcareous soils of Serralunga. This gives a more savoury and complex style than the more typical examples (yet every bit as delicious). The 2022 is a chip off the old block. It¿s meadow-fresh and intensely flavoured, with beautifully articulated white fruits, chamomile tea and perfumed florals, accompanied by a buoyant mouthfeel, chalky structure and tonnes of energy. Hard to fault this. BIBENDUM
