Villa M was created in 1978 under the name of Villa Moscatel.  Initially there was only the white version, In the second half of the '80s its version from red grapes was launched.

Winemaking Notes:

"Brachetto grapes for Villa M Rosso are hand picked and rapidly carried to the cellar to be pressed immediately. Right after the pressing and a very short maceration the must undergoes the natural process of cold clearing and then is placed into the refrigerated cells, where it is kept at low temperature until the preparation and bottling. After a few weeks/month, depending on the need, the fermentation is started at 16-18°C, when 5% alcoholic degree is achieved, fermentation is stopped through sterile filtering."

Tasting Notes:

"Aromatic scents that recall very well the fresh Brachetto grape, hints of red fruit, especially strawberry, with the evolution it develops floral, rose, and sometimes slightly spicy notes. Fresh and fragrant flavor that balances very well the sweetness. Food pairings: excellent as a very natural''social''drink. Perfect as an aperitif or after-meal, or at poolside. Villa M rosso is easily combined with fresh fruit, for example with peaches. Excellent with a wide range of desserts, but also intriguing with sweet or savory snacks."
