{"product_id":"muscadeddu-tenute-dettori-sardinia-italy-natural-wine","title":"Muscadeddu 2015","description":"\u003cp\u003eMuscadeddu is Tenute Dettori's sweet amber wine made from Moscato di Sorso-Sennori grown at Badde Nigolosu, a single-vineyard cru in Sennori, in the Romangia sub-zone of northwestern Sardinia. The vines are trained to the low-bush alberello style and grow in calcareous, yellowish-white soils at 250-300 meters elevation, about 4 kilometers from the Gulf of Asinara. The estate is certified biodynamic since 2003 and all vineyard work is done by hand without any chemical inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGrapes are hand-harvested, sorted on a steel table, destemmed but not pressed, and left to macerate in open concrete vats with no added yeasts or sulfites. Fermentation is spontaneous using indigenous yeasts. The wine is bottled without fining or filtration. Dettori does not monitor ABV, acidity, or pH during production — the target, as Alessandro Dettori puts it, is balance, not a technical spec. The color is amber-gold, a product of skin contact during maceration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Romangia IGT designation was a deliberate choice by Alessandro Dettori, who rejected DOC status in order to emphasize the specific terroir of Badde Nigolosu over grape variety or regional convention. The Muscadeddu takes its name from the Sardinian word for Moscato. Moscato has been grown in Romangia's limestone soils for centuries, historically known as the Moscato di Sorso-Sennori appellation zone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a sweet wine with notable savory complexity: dried apricot, honey, almond, fig, and a distinctly salty mineral finish. Slight oxidative development over time adds depth. The 2015 vintage received a 91-point score on Wine-Searcher's aggregated critic reviews.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tenute Dettori","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12973546242103,"sku":"TEDEMUSC15H","price":69.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/products\/dettori-muscadeddu.jpg?v=1630815279","url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/products\/muscadeddu-tenute-dettori-sardinia-italy-natural-wine","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
