Tosti Moscato d'Asti 2017
Moscato d'Asti DOCG
Moscato d’Asti is one of the most charming fizz styles you can imagine and here’s one from the very heart of the region – Tosti. Moscato delivers all that grapey, rose petal flavour and sweetness with an appealing creamy mousse and freshness.
The Wine
Even if you think you’re not a fan of a medium-sweet style of fizz, this is one you must try. It’s full of refreshing bubbly charm with classic Moscato hints of rose petal and grape that makes your mouth water. It’s a terrific glassful on its own, anytime of the day, perfect with a slice of cake (Madeira or lemon and almond perhaps) or fruity pudding. Moscato is of course the same as France’s Muscat, one of the most aromatic varieties in the world, only challenged to that title by Gewurztraminer! Asti is the finest area of Italy’s Piedmont for the style and we think this is the best we’ve tasted. It’ll bring thoughts of spring to mind whatever the time of year. Embrace the sweetness and freshness – this fizz is a delight. Chill well.
"A classic Moscati d’Asti – Piedmont’s most charming fizz. Afternoon tea with a glass – perfect!"
