Cascina Castlet AVIE' Moscato Passito
Description: Made from the partially dried grapes of the estate’s oldest Moscato vines, this is a rich dessert wine that retains all the delicious grapey sweetness and the perfume of the Muscat grape. Thanks to a unique combination of brilliantly innovative packing and exciting and rare styles, the wines of Cascina Castlet have quickly developed a cult following. Passum is their most famous wine, a Barbera made from partially dried grapes. Quantities are extremely limited and demand is high. Other notable wines include Litina, a cru Barbera d’Asti with considerable depth and concentration, and a sublimely scented Moscato d’Asti, as well as Avie, an intense Moscato passito (6 x 37.5 cl)
