Sweet
Moscato d'Asti
By Franco Mondo, Nizza, Piemonte, Italy
Moscato d'Asti DOCG from vineyards planted in the 1980s in San Marzano Oliveto and Canelli, at the heart of the Moscato d'Asti zone.
Tasting notes
Elegant, fine aromas with a good balance between sugar and acidity. Sweet, moderately alcoholic and lightly sparkling, retaining the fragrance and aroma of the Moscato grape.
Pairs well with
On its own as a refreshing, tonic drink, or with dry pastries and fruit tarts; a fine match for any dessert.
