Details
This is just a joy to drink. Do you have a sweet tooth? If so, this wine has your name written all over it. Lightly sparkling, lower alcohol, this fizz display notes of tropical fruit with a ripe, honeyed texture. Perfect for dessert!
Origin: The original sparkling wines were made in a place called Limoux in southern France. Mainly Grown In: These days, the whole world sparkles - these styles are made anywhere and everywhere, from a range of grape varieties. Key Facts: Champagne gets all the attention, but there's so much more to the world of sparkling than that. In fact, there are 4 main methods of production for sparkling wine, each producing slightly different styles and flavours. What is common across all of them however is really focussed, tangy acidity (due mostly to harvesting the grapes early - the acidity is needed to keep the sparkling wine fresh) and an elegant fruit profile. Main flavours often include various citrus fruits, crunchy green apple and hints of honey or biscuit. At the end of the day though, it's about those bubbles and the refreshment factor! Fun Fact: Sparkling wine is an amazing pairing with movie night binge foods because it is known to have the acidity and faint saltiness. These characteristics cut through our favourites like fried chicken and french fries and leave us feeling refreshed.

Pairing guide
Mmm… we fell head over heels in love with this beautifully balanced Moscato at first sip! Like most Moscato wines, this little stunner is fantastically food-friendly, and pairs best with laid-back dining options, especially sumptuous cheese and charcuterie boards, and appetisers such as bruschetta and dips. If you do fancy serving up this fizzy wine with your main course, you’d do well to pair it with Indian curries like butter chicken, or other spicy dishes like Szechuan chilli tofu, pasta arrabiata, or well-spiced fish.

Wine region

Piedmont, Italy
The Piedmont wine region in Italy is a magical place known for producing world-class wines. The region is bordered by the Alps to the north and the Apennine Mountains to the south, and it is characterized by rolling hills and a diverse landscape. The climate in Piedmont is generally cool and wet, with warm, dry summers and cold, snowy winters. This climate is well-suited to grape growing offering slow and steady ripening conditions which lead to high-quality and expressive wines. Piedmont is most praised for its red wines, particularly Barolo and Barbaresco, which are made from the Nebbiolo grape. Barbera and Dolcetto are other celebrated reds of the region, and as for its white wines, Arneis, Moscato d'Asti and the rare Nascetta. Piedmont is also famous for its flavorful truffles, often used in local dishes, and pair beautiful with its regional wines.
