Asti

Asti, situated in the Piedmont region of Italy, is home to one of the most well-known wines in the world – Asti wine. Asti wine is a sparkling white wine that is produced in the Asti region, also known as Asti Spumante. It is known for its sweet, fruity taste and slightly effervescent texture.

The grapes used to make Asti wine are predominantly Moscato bianco grapes, which are grown in the hilly vineyards of the Asti region. The winemaking process for Asti wine is unique and distinct from other sparkling wines. Whereas Champagne undergoes a secondary fermentation process in the bottle, Asti wine is produced using the Charmat method, where the secondary fermentation takes place in large tanks before the wine is bottled.

Asti wine has a lower alcohol content than most wines, at around 5-9%, and is best served chilled. Because of its low alcohol content and sweet taste, it is often enjoyed as a dessert wine, or paired with a variety of desserts like fruit tarts or cakes. Asti wine is also perfect for celebrating special occasions, such as weddings or birthdays.

Asti wine is recognised as a DOCG wine, which is the highest classification in Italian wines. The strict regulations on production and quality of Asti wine have led to consistent excellence in every bottle. The high quality of Asti wine can be attributed to the unique terroir of the region, with its perfect combination of soil, climate and geography.

The heritage of Asti wine can be traced back to pre-Roman times, and the wine has been widely enjoyed throughout history. Today, Asti wine continues to be a popular choice for wine lovers all over the world. Asti wine is a true icon of the Piedmont region, and is an essential part of the Italian wine culture. If you are a wine lover, tasting Asti wine is an experience you don't want to miss.
