Cantina Sant’Andrea Oppidum Moscato di Terracina Secco 2021
Oppidium Moscato di Terracina DOC by Cantina Sant’Andrea is an aromatic dry white wine with deep straw yellow and light golden glints. On the nose, it is intense, expressive of aromas of tropical fruits, rose and apricot. On the palate, the wine is well-balanced, with pleasant acidity, aromatic hints, and typical bitter almond finish.
It pairs very well with elaborated fish courses, mixed fried food and fish starters. Also recommended with smoked food and cheese.
How is the wine made?
Delicate wine-pressing, cryomaceration of 24/36 hours and long fermentation at controlled temperature of 16/18°C. The following pouring and the constant control of the temperature maintain, in this dry and aromatic wine, the whole taste and fragrance of the grape from which it comes from.
About the winery
The history of Cantine Sant’Andrea started in the Sicilian island where Andrea I Pandolfo was cultivating the small vineyards of Zibibbo grapes.
Currently the winery grows wine in three main vineyards: the vineyard in Aprilia that they call ‘the heart of production of the farm’; the historical vineyard in Borgo Vodice, and the Vineyard in Terracina, 400 metres above sea level, producing Muscat of Terracina, then Cesanese of Terracina, Aleatico and Abbuoto or Cecubo (this last one was already produced by Romans).
Sant’Andrea also has a special kosher wine range.
