Dindarello is Maculan's late-harvest Moscato, a lighter and more delicate counterpart to the intense Torcolato and Acininobili. From small Moscato (Muscat blanc a petits grains) grapes left on the vine to develop extra ripeness, it captures the variety's natural floral sweetness without botrytis intervention.

  • Light sponge cake with strawberries

History

Dindarello completes Maculan's dessert wine trilogy at the lighter, more accessible end. Moscato grows around Breganze's lower-altitude slopes and the variety's natural aromatic intensity translates readily into a charming late-harvest sweet wine. The name is a local dialect term for a bell sound.

  1. 1980: Maculan launches Dindarello as a late-harvest Moscato from the Breganze DOC area.
