Maeli Dilá 2014
Veneto, ItalyDilà means rising above challenges. This wine is the first moscato giallo (yellow muscat) made in the medoto classico (traditional method), spending 13 months on the lees prior to release. Organically-farmed, and naturally-bent, with no additions or deletions, the grapes come from the high altitude volcanic Luvigliano Hills, in Padua, within the DOC of Colli Eugani (though sparkling wines are not permitted use of the DOC). Ample meadow herbs, toasted pine nuts, yellow fruits and citrus, this reminds me of a witbier in bitterness and body (very fine mousse), but carries the brightness of lemon, and the perfumed quince of moscato. Light in body and persistent in flavour, this is a lovely, delicate pour as an aperitif. Best well chilled.Tasted: 06 October 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $79.95 | 750ml | private order |
