WINE MAKING PROCESS
Moscato d'Asti Mistral is produced using the Charmat method, where a secondary fermentation occurs in pressurized stainless steel tanks to capture natural carbonation. Fermentation is conducted at controlled temperatures to preserve the delicate aromas of the Moscato Bianco grapes. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks to maintain its freshness and effervescence. Harvest typically takes place in September.
