Moscato di Sorso Sennori is an Italian white wine, specifically a sweet, dessert style of wine that's produced in the Sardinian region of Italy. Its name is derived from two small towns, Sorso and Sennori.
Made from the Moscato Bianco grape variety or Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains, this wine typically exhibits a bouquet of sweet and fruity fragrances, with notes of honey, orange blossom, ripe pear, and apricot. The wine itself is usually aromatic, sweet, and fizzy with a low alcohol content.
Typically, Moscato di Sorso Sennori is consumed fresh, often as an aperitif or as a dessert wine. It is highly recommended with traditional Sardinian sweets or with the classic panettone.
The wine was awarded Denominazione di origine controllata (DOC) status in 1972, which is a quality assurance label for Italian wines.
Moscato di Sorso Sennori is relatively well-known and appreciated within its region, although it is less well known internationally compared to wines from other regions of Italy. Enjoyed by many for its uniquely rich and concentrated flavors, it continues to be a significant part of Sardinia's wine culture.
