Clean, bright and simple, this would taste great on a hot summer afternoon by the pool. Citrus, stone fruit and crushed white-pepper notes emerge on the finish. (M.L.) - WE Buying Guide 

THE BEST WINE, 89 points REFOSCO DAL PEDUNCOLO ROSSO 2009
Sensations: Very few at this level of exceptional density, including tannic, succeed in having a bouquet equally as intensely persuasive. Those few superstars that succeed in offering noteworthy emission and persuasive power, despite a tannic presence itself of a marked level. What spicy sweetness, what sweet mintiness, what fragrance pulpously unleashed by both the bouquet and taste of this wine. A palate that is unquestionably meaty, but never aggressive. Its depth, its turgidity, its smooth, enveloping, minty vigor. A Refosco of rare, splendid oenologic and oxidative integrity.

Conclusive Comment: Highly diffused pleasantness in the numerous and different wines offered by Moletto. Glasses with a versatile virtuosity, with the whites such as the Sauvignon 2010, the smooth Pinot Bianco Lison-Pramaggiore 2010, the delicate and floral Chardonnay Lison-Pramaggore 2010 revealing a smoothness and oenological distinctness in their production, traits also sumptuously confirmed in the reds, such as the powerful Cabernet Sauvignon ‘Selecti’ 2004 and the majestic Raboso 2005. Excellent transparency of aroma in the Prosecco Extra Dry and the smooth, enveloping Brut Millesimato Moletto 2008. The no. 1 wine of this tasting is the Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso 2009, a wine that reveals its decisive tendency towards overall excellence. Its combined smoothness/clarity is the stuff of champions, within a context of extractive-expressive richness and power. A wine turgid and chlorophyllous with spices that evokes blackberries. My compliments.

"In the eastern-most part of the province of Treviso, where over five centuries ago there stood a forest ruled over by the Serenissima (Venice), extremely favorable conditions for wine-growing emerged thanks to the fine and unique quality of the clayey-calcareous soil and farsighted tenacity of those who have dedicated themselves to perpetuating the age-old traditions, while remaining abreast of state-of-the-art wine-making technologies. This is Moletto, a family-run winery where working alongside Mario Stival, the original heart-and-soul of the vineyard, and his wife Anna, are their children Mauro, Giovanni and Chiara."
