The Story
A magnificent, lusciously sweet, and lightly sparkling Italian dessert wine crafted by Tenuta Bricco San Giorgio from 100% Moscato Bianco grapes grown along the sun-drenched, rolling hillsides of Canelli. Appropriately named "Fior d'Acacia" (Acacia Flower), this 2023 vintage beautifully preserves its highly aromatic varietal purity through gentle pressing and natural fermentation inside sealed autoclaves (pressure tanks) using the traditional Martinotti-Charmat method. It displays a luminous straw-yellow profile enhanced by persistent, delicate effervescence. The deeply fragrant nose bursts with classic floral aromas of acacia blossom, wisteria, and lime tree, seamlessly layered over juicy white peach, ripe apricot, and a subtle hint of fresh balsamic herbs. On the palate, it is light-bodied, creamy, and wonderfully balanced, offering a clean, sugary sweetness that is kept perfectly lively and refreshing by a bright, vibrant core acidity.
Food Pairing: Pairs flawlessly with fresh fruit tarts, panettone, hazelnut biscotti, light cream-based desserts, or served as a delightful contrast against savory blue cheeses.
