Asti Millesimato Docg Vintage 2022 75 cl Fontanafredda

FF AST

Technical notes

Vinification: the best-known and most popular sweet Italian D.O.C.G. sparkling wine is made by softly pressing the grapes whole, and then fining and filtering the must before it is fermented in pressure tanks (Charmat Method) at a low temperature.

Ageing: this is a wine for drinking when it is young to appreciate its extraordinary freshness; on account if the special techniques used in its production, it is ready for consumption just a few days after bottling.

Tasting notes

The unmistakable personality of this Asti is the result of a vintage blend of the best, carefully-selected grapes from each harvest. The unique Asti Millesimato Fontanafredda is an aromatic sparkling wine with an which turns every occasion into a celebration: the ideal companion for a thousand moments of fun and joy. The fragrance of its aroma, which is typical of the grape-variety, fills this wine with an inviting, sweet nose of musk, sage and honey, and of the flowers of linden, acacia, hawthorn and orange trees, arousing engaging sensations lengthened by a lingering cheery flavour. All its promise is confirmed in the classic goblet: the straw-yellow colour, the fragrant, attractively sweet and well-balanced bouquet, and the taste of just-picked grapes.

Pairings: Very enjoyable at any time, it is also a perfect match for many sweets, especially fine, delicately-flavoured desserts. Outstanding with fruit.
