The Moscato Giallo is a true specialty of the Cantina di Caldaro, made from a grape variety cultivated for centuries in these lands and which has adapted very well to the cool climate of the Alto Adige region.

It manages over 450 hectares of vineyards, which are supplied by 650 small growers who passionately cultivate their vines.
