The 2010 Moscato d’Asti Sourgal is Perrone’s rounder, creamier Moscato, but that is in relative terms, as the Sourgal comes across as seriously intense when tasted next to its peers. White peaches, spices, jasmine and pears are some of the many notes that flow in this striking, fabulous Moscato. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2103. Stefano Perrone makes a number of delicious wines, but truly excels with his Moscati and other sweet wines. I always try to have a few bottles on hand. Importer: The Rare Wine Co., Sonoma, CA; Tel.

The 2009 Moscato d’Asti Sourgal is a more typical example of Moscato than the Clarte’. Open, expressive aromatics lead to generous fruit that blossoms on the palate in a rich, textured style. The fruit carries through nicely, enveloping the palate through to the long, polished finish. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012. Proprietor Stefano Perrone makes reference-point Moscatos. Readers who want to discover the true heights Moscato is capable of must put Perrone on their short list. Importer: The Rare Wine Co., Sonoma, CA; tel. (707) 996-4484

The 2008 Moscato d’Asti Sourgal dances on the palate with intricate layers of perfumed green apples and pears that come to life in a gorgeous, refined expression of Moscato. Medium in body, the wine offers outstanding length and a refined, poised finish. This is the most successful of Perrone’s 2008 sweet wines. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2010. Stefano Perrone remains a reference-point producer for Moscato. Importer: The Rare Wine Co., Sonoma, CA; tel. (707) 996-4484

The 2007 Moscato d’Asti Sourgal reveals classic varietal notes of crisp green apples, mint, flowers and spices. This creamy-textured Moscato offers outstanding length and finesse to spare. This is as good as Moscato gets. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2009. Along with Paolo Saracco, proprietor Stefano Perrone makes the reference-point Moscatos from Asti. As if that weren’t enough, Perrone also bottles one the finest modern-styled Barberas from Asti, the Barbera Mongovone. Count me among those who is thrilled Perrone gave up a career in motorcycle racing to focus on making wine. Importer: The Rare Wine Co., Sonoma, CA; tel. (707) 996-4484
