Moscato d’Asti DOCG Cicheta - Piazzo

A rich, rewarding Moscato.

The unmistakable flavour of the Moscato grape, combined with natural effervescence, just the right amount of acidity and a low alcohol content, makes this a naturally contemporary wine, perfect for enjoying at any time of day.

Although traditionally known as a dessert wine, it is actually excellent as an aperitif, paired with savoury dishes or strongly flavoured, blue or “spicy” cheeses, with which the contrast creates a perfect balance. It is also perfect with afternoon snacks, making a simple moment special.

Soft pressing of the grapes. Fermentation takes place at low temperatures in special airtight stainless steel tanks, ensuring that the gas (CO₂) that forms naturally during this phase dissolves into the liquid. Once the alcohol content of the Moscato has reached 5%, fermentation is halted by chilling. The very cold wine quickly becomes clear and is bottled, retaining its characteristic sparkle.
