Moscato d’Asti DOCG

Marcarini is located in the heart of La Morra, a quaint hilltop village with a population of 2,758, surrounded on all sides by perfectly manicured hillside vineyards. The building goes back to the 1700s and is connected to a medieval tower. The winery’s historic cool, underground cellars are ideal for classic élevage. The exquisite Marcarini range features an embracing style, outstanding longevity and that blockbuster structure Piedmont is famous for.

Marcarini, founded in the 1850s, was among the very first in the Langhe area to designate single vineyards on its labels – as early as the 1950s. In fact, Boschi di Berri Pre-Fillossera, one of its historic crus, is over 150 years old and planted with rare, pre-Phylloxera Dolcetto vines. All their vineyards are estate-owned in some of the most sought-after areas of the region known for winemaking excellence. These wonderful locations, the steepness of the slopes, the nature of the terrain, sun exposure and exceptional microclimate are not only conducive to top wines, but to non-aggressive, natural vineyard management. Vineyard surface covers 42 of the estate’s total 62 acres (17 and 25 hectares respectively).

An extraordinary dessert wine – sweet yet fresh and intensely aromatic – whose delicate sparkle and lively grape flavors are the pride of Moscato d’Asti. These pure Moscato Bianco (which goes back to Roman times) grapes are grown in Marcarini’s Cascina Sargentin vineyards in Neviglie, right in the heart of the appellation. It is intensely aromatic, with fruity and floral notes. The quintessential dessert wine, easy to pair with freshly baked desserts. For Marcarini, this wine represents happiness and friendship.
