Details
A classic Moscato d'Asti, yes. But this wine shows off more stone fruit character than you might expect from a Moscato, with layers of peach and apricot interlacing with classic notes of lychee and herbs. A delightful wine, perfect with spicy food and dessert!

Pairing guide
We love a great Moscato here at Good Pair Days, and we’re endlessly impressed just how food-friendly this sparkling wine style can be. The delicate sweetness of this wine calls out for salty and spicy dishes; we absolutely adore it with salt cod (especially salt cod cakes and fritters), Sichuan beef dishes, chilli-spiked fish curries, Thai crab curries, and any salty charcuterie. It’s also a great pairing for strong blue cheeses, so be sure to sort out a cheese board for dessert!

Wine region

Piedmont, Italy
The Piedmont wine region in Italy is a magical place known for producing world-class wines. The region is bordered by the Alps to the north and the Apennine Mountains to the south, and it is characterized by rolling hills and a diverse landscape. The climate in Piedmont is generally cool and wet, with warm, dry summers and cold, snowy winters. This climate is well-suited to grape growing offering slow and steady ripening conditions which lead to high-quality and expressive wines. Piedmont is most praised for its red wines, particularly Barolo and Barbaresco, which are made from the Nebbiolo grape. Barbera and Dolcetto are other celebrated reds of the region, and as for its white wines, Arneis, Moscato d'Asti and the rare Nascetta. Piedmont is also famous for its flavorful truffles, often used in local dishes, and pair beautiful with its regional wines.
