Riflessi Asti Spumante (75cl, 9%)

A sweet Italian sparkling wine from Piedmont's Asti DOCG, made entirely from Moscato Bianco and produced by the Charmat method, bottled at approximately 7-9% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Fermentation takes place in pressurized stainless steel vessels and is halted by rapid chilling at roughly 7-9% alcohol, leaving 3-5% residual sugar. The wine is then filtered to remove yeast. The nose has ripe white peach, apricot, honeysuckle, acacia blossom and muskiness. The palate is bright with stone fruit, ripe pear, honeyed floral notes and crisp acidity, with lively mousse. The finish is moderate with lingering peach and a floral fade.
