Why You'll Love It
This is authentic Moscato d'Asti from Piedmont—the original and best expression of this beloved style. At just 5% ABV, it's wonderfully light and refreshing, making it perfect for any time of day. The natural sweetness comes from halted fermentation, preserving the grape's aromatic intensity and fresh fruit character. Sourced from 30-year-old vines in the Monferrato hills, this wine offers exceptional quality and charm at an outstanding price.
Meet the Producer
This wine is crafted by Araldica Castelvero, one of Piedmont's most dynamic co-operatives, based in Castel Boglione in the heart of Barbera d'Asti. Known for blending traditional practices with modern winemaking, Araldica consistently delivers wines that showcase the best of the region.
Production
The grapes are sourced from members' vineyards in the Monferrato hills, in the southern Asti province of Piedmont. These south-west facing vineyards sit at 250–400m above sea level on limestone-clay soils, using the traditional low Guyot trellis system. Vines average 30 years of age with a density of 4,000–4,500 per hectare. Fruit is hand-harvested in early September, then fermented in pressurised tanks under temperature control. Fermentation is halted by chilling and filtration, retaining natural sweetness and a light sparkle at just 5% alcohol.
Tasting Notes
Sweet, lightly sparkling and highly aromatic, with delicate notes of honey and fresh flowers. The palate shows ripe apricot, juicy grape and a soft, creamy mousse. A refreshing streak of acidity balances the sweetness, leaving a lively, elegant finish.
Perfect Pairings
Serve well chilled as a refreshing summer aperitif or pair with fruit salads, light desserts, creamy pastries, panna cotta, or fresh berries. Its gentle sparkle and natural sweetness also make it an excellent celebratory wine for brunches and casual gatherings.
