“Certain criteria and procedures must be followed to produce this wine,” explains Eros Spinozzi, selector of wines (Portfolio owner) for R.S. Lipman Company, his exclusive importer for the United States. “It is a wine that is one of the most famous Moscato from this region.” “Sometimes Moscato wines do not offer the acidity so that they can taste too sweet,” explains Eros. “The sweetness of this wine is not overpowering, and the taste is very refreshing. Acidity is an essential aspect for sweet wines.”

Dogliotti Moscato d’Asti also ages well and can be stored (correctly) for four to five years.
