Albino Rocca Moscato d'Asti 2019
Alba, Cuneo, Piedmont, ItalyOnce you have experienced a Moscato d'Asti in Italy, you will always embrace it whenever you come across it. It's slightly fizzy, sweet, and fresh, and it dances on the palate. And in this case, it has enticing floral, citrus, and pear. It's considered a lovely dessert wine, but here in British Columbia, I think it works equally with a wide assortment of South Asian food. It is made with moscato bianco grape from the Piedmont province of Asti. What I like about Moscato is its low alcohol, usually around 5%. It's an asset before dinner and after. Albino Rocca is highly regarded for its Piedmont wines, and their less is more winemaking techniques seem a perfect match for this moscato.Tasted: 24 October 2020Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $27.50 | 750ml | select private retailers |
