Named after plot 101, considered the estate's finest parcel for Moscato, with vines planted in 1953 and 1994. Harvested as early as mid-September to preserve freshness, fermentation in steel tanks is stopped at 5-6% alcohol. A harmonious, elegant Moscato d'Asti with orange blossom, honeysuckle, ripe peach, and apricot aromas, delicately sweet with a hint of pleasant bitterness.
101 is proof that Moscato d'Asti can be serious wine — precise, aromatic, and never cloying.
