Introducing Pizzolato Moscato
Made with 100% Organic Grapes
Perfect Springtime White Sparkler
Greetings!
 In celebration of National Moscato Day, Thursday, May 9, we are delighted to introduce Pizzolato Moscato made with 100% organically grown grapes. This very special "dolce" (sweet) white sparkler is perfect for spring and summer sipping, for a special celebration, such as Mother's Day or Father's Day, paired with dessert or a pre-dinner toast. Its low alcohol content (7%) makes it perfect for an anytime aperitif. The clever and colorful bottle design and label also make this wine great for gift giving and to display proudly on the table.
The 100% organically grown Moscato grapes are grown by La Cantina Pizzolato in the Venezia DOC region, with the vineyards situated on the plains and hillsides near the Piave river. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand during the end of August. The wine's vinification process includes a soft pressing, then the grape must remains in steel pressurized tanks, utilizing the Charmat method of secondary fermentation for 2 months, reaching up to a pressure of 2.5 atm.
The res ulting wine has a penetrating aroma, fragrant with hints of sage and peach. The wine has a good balance of fruit flavors with harmonious acidity and just the right amount of frizzante effervescence. Only Indigenous Yeasts are used in production, and all Pizzolato wines are Certified Vegan by the Vegan Society of the UK, with no animal byproducts used in the fining process.
Pizzolato Moscato was recently awarded a Silver Medal in the prestigious 2013 Sunset International Wine Competition. The suggested retail price is $12-14 and it is available now for shipping from our Sonoma Warehouse.
Moscato sales rose by a third in volume last year in US, making it the 5th best selling wine in the United States. According to Decanter.com "Moscato now commands a 6% share of wine bought in retail chains, where it is more popular than Sauvignon Blanc and only two percentage share points behind Pinot Grigio." Some credit a surge in sales over the past two years to the Millennial buyer who finds it a more accessible bubbly, and others who may have also been influenced by mentions of Moscato in recent popular rap songs.
