Saracco Moscato d'Asti 2022 750ml
DOZEN: $356.40 or $29.70 each
Paolo Saracco remains the reference point producer for Moscato d'Asti, with perhaps one or two close peers, and that is it. I have seen Saracco's vineyards, and they are great sites, but they aren't the only top Moscato vineyards, so I am perplexed why no one else can make wines at this level. But the truth remains that very few can, or are willing to make the sacrifices necessary to do so. ANTONIO GALLONI, Vinous
The 2022 Saracco Moscato d'Asti is one of the best Saracco's I have ever tried. Super complex but fresh with a heap of acidity and palate length to boot. Ian D'Agata from Vinous, who describes Saracco Moscato as the 'DRC of Moscato d'Asti' sumed up the 2018 beautifully with this tasting note:
Even before Mondo was the importers for Saracco Moscato d'Asti in Australia, I always considered it be the best in the world. Each year I would visit the estate and try the new release wines. After a few years, Paolo Saracco offered us the Australian agency and for the last ten years, we have been proudly representing this amazing estate in Australia.
Luminous pale straw-green with golden tinges. Captivating aromas of orange blossom, lemon verbena, vanilla, sage and ripe grapefruit nectar. Dense, juicy and suave, presenting a multilayered, complex set of flavors similar to the aromas. The finish is very long, resonating with a floral topnote and delightful vibrancy. Outstanding, concentrated, complex and very pure Moscato d'Asti.'
