This is what good wine from the Nasco grape tastes like

The Nasco grape comes from Sardinia, Italy. It produces soft, rich white wines with notes of honey and (dried) tropical fruit. Sardinian winemakers use Nasco for both sweet and dry white wines.

You won't easily find a wine made from the Nasco grape because it's so scarce. Only about 170 hectares of vineyards are planted with it on Sardinia. How the grape arrived on this island isn't entirely clear. It may owe its name to the Muscat aroma that very late-harvested varieties can have.

Near the capital, Cagliari, Nasco has its own DOC status (Nasco di Cagliari DOC). Most winemakers make a sweet wine from it. And if you taste a dry one, you can imagine what it's like. Nasco is rich and full-bodied, with moderate acidity and exuberant aromas of tropical fruit and spices. A distinctive wine.
