The delicate, long-lasting bubbles add to its elegance and make it a great aperitif. Its lovely sweetness also pairs well with desserts. A sip of this Asti brings to mind beautiful Italian vineyards and exemplifies Fontanafredda's centuries-old winemaking traditions. This is a true taste of Italian luxury in a bottle.
