I had decided to eliminate it but I tasted the grapes and I couldn't help thinking that the result would be a fashionable, light and drinkable wine, to be tasted as an aperitif.”
The Goldmuskateller It is a white grape variety, probably brought from Greece to Italy in the Middle Ages. Its berries have a very intense golden yellow skin, with an unmistakable scent. This variety requires sunny soils to best express the intense aroma typical of its grapes.
