Moscato Giallo on the Euganean hills

Conical volcanic hills rise above the plain near Padua.

Moscato Giallo is the principal grape of Fior d’Arancio. Its vineyards belong to the Euganean hills, where volcanic, sedimentary and alluvial ground create varied settings. Exposure helps growers choose between grapes for still or sparkling wines and those intended for passito. The shared name links these styles to the same aromatic grape and hill landscape.

The delimited hills of Padua province

The zone includes all of Arquà Petrarca, Galzignano Terme and Torreglia, with specified portions of neighboring municipalities in Padua province.
