Terranova Moscatel
by Miolo · Sparkling wine · São Francisco Valley (Bahia), Brazil
Terranova Moscatel is the sweet sparkling wine from Vinícola Terranova, which the Miolo family runs in Casa Nova, Bahia, in the São Francisco Valley. The project began in partnership with the Benedetti family, of Lovara, on the former Fazenda Ouro Verde; today the winery farms 200 hectares. Miolo, the group's parent winery, began in Bento Gonçalves with Giuseppe Miolo, who arrived from Italy in 1897.
It is made by the Asti method, with Moscato grapes: full destemming, five hours of cold maceration and fermentation in an autoclave, stopped by chilling, which leaves 7.5% alcohol and 70 g/L of residual sugar. It is then filtered and bottled without aging. Miolo recommends serving it between 4 and 6 °C, with fresh fruit and desserts.
