In fact, it should not be relegated to a Christmas &#8220;party&#8221; wine or just a dessert wine because it holds far from obvious peculiarities.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A small premise<\/h2>\n\n<p>It is important to make a distinction for the inexperienced between<a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/wines\/docg-asti\/\">Asti<\/a> and <a title=\"Moscato d'Asti DOCG\" href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/wines\/docg-moscato-asti\/\">Moscato d&#8217;Asti<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Although they are produced from the<strong> same pure grape variety<\/strong><a title=\"Muscat\" href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/vines\/moscato-en\/\">(100% white muscat<\/a>) and are part of the same DOCG, they are two <strong>different<\/strong> <strong>wines<\/strong>. The difference lies in the method of production.<\/p>\n\n<p>Moscato d&#8217;Asti, not undergoing frothing, <strong>is not a sparkling wine<\/strong>, although it is sometimes characterized by a <strong>slight natural fizz <\/strong>(it is said to be &#8220;lively&#8221;), while Asti is a sweet sparkling wine.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How it is produced<\/h2>\n\n<p>For the production of Moscato d&#8217;Asti, grapes are pressed using.  <strong>presses<\/strong> <strong>a<\/strong> <strong>lung<\/strong>  (maximum pressure of 1.5 Bar) and the resulting must, cleaned of suspended solid particles by static defecation, centrifugation, and\/or filtration, is chilled to prevent the start of unwanted fermentation, cleaned of suspended solid particles, and kept in  <strong>cold rooms<\/strong>  (0\u00b0C) until fermentation starts.<\/p>\n\n<p>The technology for making Moscato d&#8217;Asti involves heating the <strong>must from 0\u00b0 to 18\u00b0C<\/strong>, adding selected yeasts with low acetaldehyde production (cooked apple odor) and conducting fermentation at a controlled temperature ranging from 18\u00b0 to 20\u00b0C.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/damigiane_moscato.jpg\" alt=\"demijohns_moscato\" class=\"wp-image-7220\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p>When the wine must reaches 4.5 to 5.5 degrees of alcohol carried out, alcoholic fermentation is stopped by refrigeration to -3\u00b0C, filtered and bottled after further <strong>sterilizing<\/strong> <strong>microfiltration<\/strong>. The latter is necessary because it only takes a few residual yeasts to give rise to re-fermentation of the product, which would lead to cloudiness of the wine, change in flavor, and in more severe cases, breakage of the bottle.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"quote quote--pull-left quote--is-small typography__quote\"><p>Il Moscato d\u2019Asti, pur non essendo uno spumante, mantiene una vivacit\u00e0 che lo rende unico.<\/p><cite class=\"quote__author uppercase--md\">Simone tablino<\/cite><span class=\"quote__book serif--sm\">Enologo<\/span><\/blockquote>\n\n<p>Although <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.langhe.net\/categoria-prodotto\/vini-bianchi\/moscato\/\">Moscato d&#8217;Asti<\/a> is not a sparkling wine (it does not undergo frothing during the final stages of alcoholic fermentation), it retains a <strong>liveliness <\/strong>that <strong>makes<\/strong> it <strong>unique<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>Depending on the compositional characteristics and <strong>moderate<\/strong> bottle <strong>pressure<\/strong>, isobaric bottling of this wine requires <strong>strict<\/strong> microbiological <strong>sterile<\/strong> <strong>conditions<\/strong> <strong>.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, Moscato d&#8217;Asti differs from sparkling wine in the use in corking of the classic <strong>cylindrical cork<\/strong> since it is a wine characterized by a <strong>limited alcohol content<\/strong> and an <strong>important sugar content<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Voice of the producers<\/h2>\n\n<p>Of the amazing properties of <strong>Moscato D&#8217;Asti DOCG <\/strong>we have talked about it in depth, and this time we want to tell about the aspects of its production, giving voice to those who really know this wine because they produce it.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Therefore, we thank <strong>Barbara <\/strong>from the <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/business\/vini-gatti\/\">Gatti Piero<\/a> winery and <strong>Maurizio<\/strong> from the <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/business\/beppe-marino\/\">Beppe Marino<\/a> winery, both in Santo Stefano Belbo, <strong>Marco Bussi <\/strong>from the <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/business\/la-badia\/\">La Badia<\/a> winery in Calosso, <strong>Luca <\/strong>from the <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/business\/ugo-balocco\/\">Ugo Balocco<\/a> winery in San Marzano Oliveto, and <strong>Eleonora <\/strong>from the <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/business\/matteo-soria\/\">Matteo Soria<\/a> winery in Costigliole Tinella for enthusiastically answering our questions.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Happy reading!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"691\" height=\"460\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/paesaggi_trail_delmoscato-513.jpg\" alt=\"santo stefano belbo - events\" class=\"wp-image-99459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/paesaggi_trail_delmoscato-513.jpg 691w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/paesaggi_trail_delmoscato-513-250x166.jpg 250w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/paesaggi_trail_delmoscato-513-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/paesaggi_trail_delmoscato-513-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 691px) 100vw, 691px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why do you think it is a wine that people like?  <\/h4>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Barbara<\/span> &#8211; First of all, you have to distinguish who likes it: young people, as well as people of advanced age, it satisfies for more or less the same reasons, because it is an <strong>easy wine<\/strong>, with <strong>little alcohol<\/strong>, sweet and sparkling, that you can even drink in the afternoon to snack on!  <\/p>\n\n<p>There is another part of the public, however, that is <strong>prejudiced <\/strong>and calls it &#8220;undemanding,&#8221; but when they taste it, they change their minds if it is done well. Abroad likes it because it is sweet and <strong>light<\/strong>, suitable for palates even unaccustomed to demanding wines.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Marco<\/span> &#8211; Likes it because it has low alcohol content and an<strong>appealing sweet base<\/strong> that make it easy to drink. It used to be considered &#8220;women&#8217;s wine&#8221;-nowadays this label is slowly being forgotten because it is enjoyed by just about everyone.  <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, the ways in which it is consumed have also changed, with it playing a starring role in <strong>aperitifs <\/strong>and an excellent companion to <strong>savory dishes<\/strong>. In short, it is no longer relegated to holiday dinners and important occasions. This change years ago seemed utopian.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Luke<\/span> &#8211; In my opinion, Moscato is liked for its<strong> <\/strong>unmistakable aromaticity, unique to the White Muscat of Canelli grown on our hills. It is sweet, <strong>fresh<\/strong>, fragrant can be accompanied by sweets and savory appetizers. These characteristics make it <strong>unique<\/strong> and are appreciated and sought after by consumers.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Eleonora<\/span> &#8211; Likes it because it is a very <strong>versatile <\/strong>wine and can also be paired with savory food or drunk during aperitifs.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Mauritius<\/span> &#8211; Likes it because it is harmonious and its excellent balance between residual sugar and acidity makes it <strong>pleasant <\/strong>and easy to drink. Although it sounds like a simple wine, it is not at all: its aromaticity entices the sip and, once in the mouth, its never cloying sweetness is offset by the freshness given by the<strong>acidity<\/strong>, which leaves the mouth clean.  <\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is your main market?<\/h4>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Barbara<\/span> &#8211; More than half of the production goes<strong>abroad<\/strong>: I sell a lot of it in Northern Europe, but also in Mexico, Australia and Japan. The remainder is purchased in Italy, mainly in <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/visit\/restaurants\/\">restaurants<\/a><strong> <\/strong>and in <strong>wine shops<\/strong>, in the period before Christmas, between November and December.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Marco<\/span> &#8211; Currently, in addition to the domestic market, my Muscat is in great demand in <strong>Asia<\/strong>, especially in <strong>China<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-md\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"844\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/vendemmia-La-Badia-844x563.jpg\" alt=\"grape harvest - La Badia\" class=\"wp-image-202860\"\/><\/figure>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Luca<\/span> &#8211; Our main market is<strong>Italy<\/strong>, with some interesting openings in Northern Europe and America.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Eleonora<\/span> &#8211; Bottles with our label are mainly sold in <strong>Italy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Mauritius<\/span>  &#8211; In terms of volume, they play it out.  <strong>America  <\/strong>e  <strong>China<\/strong>, who love it for different reasons: Americans love its lightness and consume it as a  <strong>drink<\/strong>, also in conjunction with the  <strong>kitchen  <\/strong>ethnic, while the Chinese-who are becoming very conscious consumers-drink it throughout the meal because it goes well with the sweet and sour flavors of their preparations. In terms of <strong>satisfaction<\/strong>, however, the <strong>European market<\/strong>, particularly Switzerland and Greece, definitely wins.  <\/p>\n\n<p>It is really rewarding to know in person who buys our wine and to know that our work is admired-the European customer values the winery experience and relies so much on the<strong> human relationship<\/strong> that is created.  <\/p>\n\n<p>I would like to open a parenthesis by looking at the past and add that if Moscato today is linked to the territory, it is thanks to the<strong>  producers of the 1980s<\/strong>  &#8211; including my father &#8211; who have passionately promoted this wine, in Italy and abroad, trying to unhinge the idea that it was just a panettone wine.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Back in the days, around the mid-1990s, it was not easy for us <a href=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/en\/visit\/wineries\/\">small producers<\/a> in the Belbo Valley because reds were mostly appreciated and Moscato <strong>was not in demand<\/strong> because it was sweet.  <\/p>\n\n<p>We had to have it <strong>tasted <\/strong>to change the minds of many, who have come to appreciate it.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A curious anecdote of foreign or Italian customers approaching this product?<\/h4>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Barbara<\/span> &#8211; Very often &#8211; I speak especially for Italians &#8211; it happens that in a group of friends there is one who is <strong>particularly passionate about<\/strong> it, while the others are a bit biased. After they taste it, however, they reconsider and appreciate it so much.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Marco<\/span> &#8211; When they approach the Moscato I produce, many times <strong>they feel a sense of astonishment<\/strong> because they do not imagine that they are in front of such a product.<\/p>\n\n<p>The idea is to be able to bring the <strong>hint of the grape<\/strong> into the glass, and this I think succeeds well, so people are thrown off guard because they may have previously tasted lower quality Moscato, a simple sweet white wine.  <\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"quote quote--pull-right quote--is-small typography__quote\"><p>Il vino non ha data di scadenza, ha una sua evoluzione.<\/p><cite class=\"quote__author uppercase--md\">Marco Bussi<\/cite><span class=\"quote__book serif--sm\">La Badia<\/span><\/blockquote>\n\n<p>A Moscato made with certain criteria and a certain type of grape is very long-lived compared to others that have a less valuable base: usually it should be drunk within two years after the harvest, but <strong>a wine has no expiration date<\/strong>, it<strong> has its own evolution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>This year, for example, at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vinitaly.com\/\">Vinitaly<\/a>, the Asti Consortium did a Masterclass on old vintages of Moscato and had some of our<strong> 2005 bottles<\/strong> tasted.

This results in very high costs to deal with, often forcing producers to <strong>abandon the<\/strong> most difficult-to-care-for <strong>vineyards<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-landscape-md\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ugo-Balocco-Grappolo-900x563.jpg\" alt=\"Ugo Balocco - Environment and quality grapes.\" class=\"wp-image-218912\" srcset=\"https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ugo-Balocco-Grappolo-900x563.jpg 900w, https:\/\/langhe.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Ugo-Balocco-Grappolo-550x344.jpg 550w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are your favorite qualities of Muscat wine? A particular pairing?<\/h4>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Barbara<\/span> &#8211; Of Moscato, I really like the <strong>freshness <\/strong>because, when done right, in addition to the sweetness, it has good acidity and <strong>leaves the mouth clean<\/strong>. Another important aspect found in this type of very fresh wine is that it really feels like eating grapes as you drink it. That is precisely its peculiarity.<\/p>\n\n<p>As a pairing, perhaps it may be trivial, but in my opinion<strong> hazelnut desserts<\/strong> are ideal: two typical local products that enhance each other.<\/p>\n\n<p>I would like to add one more thing, since the interview is over: Moscato is a <strong>unique<\/strong> product, not only in Italy, but all over the world: a wine made from an aromatic, sweet and sparkling grape. In addition, it is <strong>one of the most cultivated varieties in our area<\/strong>: there are 52 production municipalities and about 10,000 hectares under vine. It doesn&#8217;t look like it but we are talking about a giant slice of the<strong>economy<\/strong>. For these reasons it can be considered one of the most representative wines of Piedmont.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Marco<\/span> &#8211; <strong>Aromas <\/strong>are its forte and, as I mentioned earlier, the sip is reminiscent of freshly picked grapes.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Pairing-wise<\/strong>, I&#8217;ve tried it with a little bit of everything and it has never let me down-I like to pair it with <strong>cured meats<\/strong>. I even tried it with <strong>smoked salmon<\/strong>, and I must say it was worth it.<\/p>\n\n<p>Moreover, although it was a completely accidental discovery, it is also enjoyable as an <strong>aperitif cocktail<\/strong>, consisting of 2 parts Moscato d&#8217;Asti and 1 part red Vermouth.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Luke<\/span> &#8211; I love Moscato because of its <strong>great versatility<\/strong>, sweet but also goes well with savory.<br\/><strong>A <\/strong>unique and unmistakable <strong>aromaticity <\/strong>. Have you ever tried a Moscato aged 10 or 15 years? Try it and you will be amazed!<\/p>\n\n<p>In my opinion it goes very well with <strong>dry pastries<\/strong>, great with hazelnut cake. A tasty pairing is with <strong>bread butter and anchovies<\/strong>, but it also drinks very <strong>well on its own<\/strong>, having a chat with friends!<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Eleonora<\/span> &#8211; I appreciate its main qualities, namely freshness and fragrance. Being an &#8216;aromatic grape, as soon as you pour it into the glass it gives an<strong>explosion of fruit aromas<\/strong>, such as peach. My favorite pairing is undoubtedly with <strong>cheeses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"uppercase--md\">Mauritius<\/span> &#8211; I love old-fashioned Moscato: honeyed, tasting of <strong>sage<\/strong> and giving the feeling of biting into the bunch of grapes.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Our Muscat &#8220;Muray,&#8221; with its almost burnt sweetness and freshness provided by good acidity, fully reflects these characteristics. Its aromas entice one to drink it, and<strong> the sip fills the mouth well<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<p>The grapes we use to make it come from a vineyard that is located in an<strong> area particularly suited for vines<\/strong>, called at the time my grandfather Muray to be exact. This dialect word, derived from the Piedmontese &#8220;mu&#8221; mulberry and &#8220;ray&#8221; rado and indicated an area where mulberry trees (whose presence was once ideal food for silkworm breeding) were not cultivated.<\/p>\n\n<p>The pairing dearest to me is with<strong> hazelnut cake<\/strong> because it is related to a memory from when I was a child, my grandmother used to make it. I grew up on Moscato and homemade dishes made by her.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To end<\/h2>\n\n<p>The producers allowed us to immerse ourselves in a glass of Moscato d&#8217;Asti, giving us a greater <strong>appreciation of<\/strong> its <strong>peculiarities<\/strong> and the intrinsic <strong>labors <\/strong>involved in its production, while also confronting us with the future of this wine.<\/p>\n\n<p>So let&#8217;s continue to celebrate its taste, production and territory with a <strong>toast <\/strong>as persistent as its notes!<\/p>\n\n<p
