Moscato d Asti Singapore: The Sweet Sparkling Gem Perfect for Every Celebration

When it comes to joy in a bottle, very few wines measure up to Moscato d’Asti. Sweet, gently effervescent and wonderfully aromatic, the Italian classic has quickly become a favourite amongst wine enthusiasts in Singapore. For celebrating a big day, a gorgeous gift, or just because, Moscato d’Asti delivers.

In this guide, we break down all there is to know about the charming wine — from where it hails in Italy to food pairings and serving suggestions, through to where you can get your hands on some of the best Moscato d’Asti in Singapore.

What is Moscato d’Asti?

Moscato d’Asti is a semi-sparkling (frizzante) wine from the Italian region of Piedmont and is one of hundreds of wines made from the Moscato Bianco grape, an esteemed variety believed to be among the oldest and most aromatic in the world. Hailing from the Asti area of Piedmont, Italy, this wine is known and loved for its low alcohol content, ever so slight sweetness, and gentle bubbles.

Unlike Champagne or Prosecco, which is its big bubbly cousin, the Moscato d’Asti is only semi-sparkling, and it goes through a slow and delicate fermentation so that all the natural sugar of the fruit remains in it. This is what gives the wine its hallmark balance — sweet, but never syrupy, and bubbly, but not over the top.

Even in hot and sweltering Singapore, Moscato d’Asti is gaining prominence as a light beer alternative and to complement the festive nature of casual sipping.
