BackgroundRoscato is a collection of irresistible, delicately sweet wines from northern Italy. Roscato seamlessly combines a long-held grape growing tradition with the flair of modern wine making techniques and style. The result is a wine of enticing character that perfectly meets the surging demand for sweet wines.
VinificationThe grapes are harvested in small boxes then crushed and destalked. After 8 hours maceration on the skins to facilitate extraction of aromas, the must is fermented at controlled temperatures until it reaches an alcohol content of 5-5.5 % by vol. The second fermentation is initiated following the Charmat method at a temperature of around 54°F, using yeasts selected on site. The wine is bottled after a short period of tank finishing.
