The Gancia Asti DOCG 7.5% vol. is a classic, finely sparkling Italian sparkling wine from the heart of Piedmont that epitomises pure joie de vivre, freshness and aromatic elegance. This fine Asti is produced by the traditional Gancia winery, which has been one of the pioneers of sparkling wine production in Italy since 1850 and is considered the founder of the Asti tradition. The wine is produced exclusively from 100% Moscato Bianco, the queen of aromatic grape varieties, whose fine nutmeg flavour gives this Asti its unmistakable character.

The grapes come from the sun-drenched hills around Canelli, where calcareous and sandy soils create ideal conditions for aromatic, juicy wines. After gentle manual harvesting, fermentation takes place using the Charmat method in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature in order to preserve the fresh primary flavours of the Moscato grape. The result is a finely sparkling, fruit-driven Asti with a seductive fragrance, pleasant sweetness and refreshing lightness - an authentic expression of Piedmontese craftsmanship.

Tasting Note

In the glass, the Gancia Asti DOCG has a bright, shiny golden yellow colour with a fine, persistent perlage. The nose reveals intense aromas of white peaches, muscat blossom, honey and orange blossom, accompanied by a hint of tropical fruit. On the palate, it is soft, lively and sweetly fruity, with a fine balance between sweetness and freshness. The finish is long, harmonious and floral, carried by the typical muscat flavour of the grape variety.

The Gancia Asti DOCG is a versatile sparkling wine that is both an elegant aperitif and an ideal accompaniment to desserts. Perfect with fruity desserts such as strawberry tiramisu, lemon tart, panna cotta or fresh fruit salads. It also harmonises perfectly with fine puff pastries, sorbets or creamy desserts with vanilla and honey. It is also ideal as a refreshing treat with brunch, light afternoon pastries or on festive occasions. Served at 6-8 °C in a sparkling wine glass, it reveals its fine perlage and fragrant aromas in full elegance. It is best drunk between 2024 and 2027, with its sparkling freshness and fruity intensity at its best when young - an Asti that epitomises pure Italian charm and lightness.
