History and Winemaking

“Leucos” is a white wine from Moscato grapes that, unlike classic Apulian Moscato wines, is not sweet (residual sugar around 9 g/l), but very close to dry aromatic whites. It represents one of the few white wines traditionally produced in Puglia. Vinification takes place in white, in temperature-controlled stainless steel.

Organoleptic Profile

Nose: Intense aromas of typical Mediterranean scrub flowers, honey, and fresh fruit (peaches and apricots)

Palate: Almost creamy and enveloping. It is persistent, well-balanced, and has a slight but noticeable acidic note that balances the alcohol content.

Serving Temperature: 14°C

Recommended Glass: Medium-sized glass for structured and aromatic white wines
