The Goldmuskateller DOC Vinalia 2022 from Cantina Bolzano is a fine sweet Passito wine from South Tyrol, made exclusively from the aromatic Yellow Muscat grape variety. Its name is inspired by the ancient Roman wine festivals known as Vinalia. The grapes come from sunny slopes around Bolzano, situated at altitudes between 300 and 400 metres.
After careful harvesting, the selected grapes are left to air-dry in shallow crates for several months. In February of the following year, they are gently pressed before the must undergoes slow fermentation in French barriques. This elaborate process gives the dessert wine its remarkable concentration and aromatic richness.
In the glass, Vinalia displays a golden-yellow colour with amber reflections. The bouquet reveals aromas of ripe apricots, pineapple, peaches, melon and candied mango. On the palate, it is full-bodied and velvety, with intense fruity sweetness, harmonious acidity and a pleasantly long-lasting finish.
