Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

A swirl of orange blossom and ripe peach rises from the glass and instantly sets an easy, celebratory mood, with Vietti Moscato d’Asti delivering that unmistakable Moscato grape perfume in a gently sparkling, sweet white wine that stays light on its feet. Made in Italy in the Asti area of Piedmont, this Moscato d’Asti sits at a delicate 5.50% ABV, with juicy apricot, candied citrus, honeyed melon, and a soft floral finish carried by bright, mouthwatering acidity. Serve it well chilled and let the lively frizzante lift dessert or aperitivo moments, especially alongside fresh fruit and blue cheese, where the wine’s sweetness and aromatics play beautifully against tangy, salty edges.

Producer Information: Vietti

Vietti is a historic family producer rooted in the Langhe hills of Piedmont, with its cellar and longtime home base in Castiglione Falletto, near Barolo, where the estate traces its beginnings to the late 19th century and took modern shape in the early 1900s before becoming widely identified with the Currado family’s direction. From the outset, Vietti’s identity has centered on traditional Piemontese varieties handled with a clear vineyard-first mindset, pairing detailed sourcing from prized Barolo and Barbaresco communes with meticulous cellar work that respects site character, a philosophy famously amplified through early attention to single-vineyard bottlings and a close link between local culture and label art. Beyond its flagship Nebbiolo wines, the portfolio spans classic Piedmont categories like Barbera d’Asti and Barbera d’Alba, Dolcetto, and Arneis from the Roero, along with Moscato and sparkling expressions that underscore a production focus on regional typicity across Piedmont’s key appellations.
