The wines of Asti, Italian excellence

(Astigiano)
Genre: wine and food   

Wine stands out among the main reasons why the Asti area is known throughout the world. A wine tour in these places allows you to taste some of the best products of the Bel Paese. The wine of the same name, Asti (or Asti spumante) DOCG is one of the most exported and appreciated Italian wines outside. Present both sweet and dry, it is recognizable by its straw yellow color (or tending to golden), while the flavor is always aromatic and balanced. The places of production of this fantastic wine are protected by UNESC0. The Moscato d'Asti DOCG, another very aromatic wine, characterized by a remarkable vivacity and sweetness, extends the list of Asti excellences. Moscato d'Asti should not be confused with Asti sparkling wine, although both are produced only from white Moscato vines. A famous red wine is also produced in the Asti area, Barbera d'Asti DOCG. There are different variants based on the specific production area, but a point of contact can be found in noting for all these wines a ruby red color and a dry, full-bodied and pleasant flavor. The spectacular hills of Asti are the treasure chest that holds one of the greatest treasures of Italy.
