Moscato di Pantelleria DOC - Solidea 2016

The Moscato di Pantelleria DOC "Solidea" from Tenuta Borgia winery is a phenomenal interpretation of Moscato di Alessandria, locally known as "Zibibbo". This natural sweet wine stands out for the intensity and complexity of its aromatic bouquet.

Grown in the volcanic and sunny soils of Pantelleria, Moscato Solidea benefits from the island's specific climatic conditions, which enhance the concentration of sugars and aromas in the fruit. The mature vineyards, set in picturesque terraces, produce superior quality grapes that are then harvested by hand, respecting traditional methods.

The winemaking process is carried out with great care. The grapes undergo a slow fermentation at controlled temperatures, thus preserving the delicate aromatic notes of Moscato. The result is a wine of bright golden yellow color, which in the glass emits intense scents of apricot, honey, candied citrus, and a subtle note of Mediterranean aromatic herbs.

On the palate, Moscato di Pantelleria Solidea is seductively sweet yet balanced, with a freshness that moderates its sweetness and invites another sip. The aromatic persistence is remarkable, leaving a sensation of pleasant complexity.

This wine is ideal as an accompaniment to desserts like the traditional Sicilian cassata or simply as an end-of-meal contemplation. Its richness and complexity also make it perfect paired with blue cheeses, creating an absolutely memorable flavor contrast.

With an aging potential that becomes even more intriguing over the years, Moscato di Pantelleria DOC Solidea is a true gem for enthusiasts of sweet and aromatic wines.
