From the historic Pio Cesare winery in Alba, Piedmont, the Bianco Moscato d’Asti 2019 is a vibrant, lightly sparkling white. Crafted from 100% Moscato Bianco, sourced from vineyards on calcareous soils in the Asti region, it’s hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel. Gently effervescent, it offers a pale straw hue with delicate complexity.
