Tasting profile (AI-generated)
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, medium acidity, sweet
This is a sweet, low-alcohol sparkling wine from the Moscato Bianco grape, made in the classic method rather than the more common tank method, which can give it slightly finer bubbles and a touch more textural depth than a typical Moscato d'Asti. Expect vivid orchard fruit and floral aromas, a soft, gently fizzy mouthfeel, and a bright streak of acidity balancing the sweetness. It is meant to be enjoyed young and chilled, ideally with light desserts or fresh fruit.
Serving: Serve at 6–8 °C.
