Description

Centorri is produced by Eleanor Estate. Founded in the 1960s, it’s located in the village of Castiglione Tinella (Asti) in Piedmont, Italy. The winery was named after owner and winemaker Eleanora Brangero, who runs the estate with her mother Emiliana, and grandmother Camilla. \ Eventually, the winery expanded their vineyard holdings into the neighboring region of Lombardia, which is gaining recognition as a source of high-quality Moscato. The grapes for Centorri are sourced from older vines, the average age is 20 years old, planted in the province of Pavia. Pavia is known as the “City of 100 Towers” which translates as “Cento” for hundred and “Torre” for Towers, hence the name Centorri for their Moscato di Pavia. This Moscato has intense aromas of peaches, rose petals and ginger. On the palate, it is delicately sweet and sparking, with modest acidity, good balance, and complexity with a finish of fresh apricots.
