Azienda Agricola COS, Aestas Siciliae · 375 mL
Regular price $30.00 Save $-30.00Variety: Moscato
Giusto Occhipinti of COS is one of the most critical names not only in Sicily but all of Italy. Founded by three friends to make traditional wine with respect for the place the grapes are grown. They were early adapters to Bio-dynamic farming and truly started a movement on the Island and are still a Golden standard for Sicilian wine.
This is a very special bottle that will defy what you think you know about Moscato. A loose translation of "Aesta Sicilae" seems to be a "Sicilian summer." In the Vittoria appellation on the southeastern coast of Sicily are high altitude vines where this Moscato is harvested late. It is fermented on the skins for added structure, and aged in stainless steel to preserve its fresh fruity character, rich texture, and saline-forward minerality. Yes, there is sweetness, but it is balanced in its non-fruit tones and a driving acidity. This bottle can age well for years and pairs excellently with cheeses or fruit desserts.
