PB Trans Apr 28, 2008:
Also known as Piemonte Moscato (the word order seems to vary). However, for your translation, make it match the Italian (Moscato Piemonte). Ref http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piemonte_Moscato
Rachel Fell Apr 28, 2008:
Nice links, Pina! Yes, I imagined it was apricots in a jar like this.
PB Trans Apr 28, 2008:
Michele, this is most likely the product you are translating: http://tinyurl.com/46cm8s / http://tinyurl.com/3pbfz8
Michele Galuppo (asker) Apr 28, 2008:
albicocche al moscato piemonte doc 10% Cara Rachel, per quello che ne so è la descrizione del prodotto. Io ho un file in fomato excel da tradurre e più di tanto non si capisce.
PB Trans Apr 28, 2008:
DOC (Denominazione d'Origine Controllata) is never translated. It is part of the EU law on Protected Designation of Origin to protect the names of regional foods. DOC is specific to Italy and is never translated. http://tinyurl.com/5c9kcm
Gad Kohenov Apr 28, 2008:
D.O.C is : AOC in French:

Denominazione d'Origine Controllata (voir AOC) [Italie]

No English translation for it?
Rachel Fell Apr 28, 2008:
Hi Michele: is this a product or recipe or what?

badly translated page, but here its alcohol content is given as 5.5% Piemonte Moscato D.O.C.

Thank you Letizia:-)
agree PB Trans : "Moscato Piemonte" is the name of the wine. You could specify "dessert wine" for greater clarity (especially on a menu). Also I prefer "D.O.C." without the periods (i.e. "DOC") http://tinyurl.com/3f46lv

Thank you Pina - yes, I agree about the inclusion or not of "(dessert) wine" but not sure of Asker's context - and agree that "DOC" is often used
agree Giles Watson : "5.5%" refers to acquired alcohol, of which Piemonte Moscato DOC must have between 5.5% and 7% but total alcohol has to be at least 10.5%. You can find the production protocol online in PDF format.

Thank you Giles :-) - yes, I see, I thought 5.5% seemed a bit low.

apricots (washed down) with Piedmont muscat wine d.o.c. 10%

.
Peer comment(s):
neutral Giles Watson : "Piemonte" and "moscato" are better left untranslated and while some people might wash down (= "annaffiare" ma a tavola, non durante l'elaborazione!) their apricots with Moscato, that's not what the phrase means.
1 hr
That's why I put "washed down" into brackets. I don't know if the apricots are washed down on not.

apricots in 10% vol. Moscato D.O.C. wine from the region of Piedmont

Another alternative.
D.O.C. could be D.O.C. (Registered Designation of Origin) but it becomes a bit long IMO.
Peer comment(s):
neutral Giles Watson : "10% vol." would refer to the alcohol content of the wine but the minimum for Piemonte Moscato DOC is 10.5%. Actually I suspect the 10% refers to proportion of wine in the product, not the alcohol in the wine.
1 hr
Well these links are both Moscato at 5,5% vol: http://www.decanter.va.it/vino_varese/specifiche_prodotti.as... & http://italian-flavor.com/italiano/prodotti/vino/dessert.php... What else would the % refer to?
