Alasia's Moscato d'Asti is sweet and gently fizzy, with honey, fresh grape and ripe apricot. Araldica, the co-operative at Castel Boglione, makes it from Moscato Bianco grown in the Monferrato hills. Serve it cold with fruit puddings.

Araldica picks the grapes for its Alasia range from its members' plots in the Monferrato hills, in the southern part of the province of Asti. The soils are limestone and clay, between 250 and 400 metres.
Honey, fresh grape and fresh flowers: the scent Moscato Bianco keeps when the fermentation runs in a sealed tank under controlled temperature and is stopped by chilling. Wine Enthusiast scored this wine's 2022 at 87 points, opening with mixed stone fruits leading to white flowers and a hint of herb.

HoneySweet and gently fizzy, with ripe apricot and the taste of the grape itself. Fermentation is stopped early by chilling, so the wine keeps its natural sugar at 5% alcohol, and the bubbles stay soft, as the Moscato d'Asti rules require.
Fresh acidity cleans up the sweetness, so the close is bright rather than sticky. Lemon and green apple ran through the same critic's note on the 2022.
A well-priced Moscato d'Asti from Araldica's Alasia range, chosen from its members' vineyards in the Monferrato hills. The one shop on this page asks £9.99 for the 2025. Drink it cold, young and with pudding.
Butler's Wine Cellar is the one shop on this page, with the 2025 at £9.99. Among the Moscato d'Asti offers on this site, few are cheaper and most cost more.
Its strongest cards are the first-try score and value: a sweet, scented wine at £9.99 that needs no explaining. Cellar potential is low by design.
Sweet, gently fizzy and scented with grape and honey, this is one of the easiest Italian wines to enjoy on a first try.
At £9.99 from the one shop on this page, it costs less than most Moscato d'Asti offers on this site, where many bottles cost half as much again.
Made for pudding: fruit tarts, nut biscuits, blue cheese and creamy desserts all suit its sweetness, fizz and fresh finish. It is not a wine for savoury main courses.
A cold bottle of Alasia Moscato d'Asti with a fruit tart or a cheese board is an easy end to a family meal or a summer lunch.
Cheap enough to open on a weeknight, though its sweetness suits a pudding or an aperitif rather than most dinners.
Moscato d'Asti is made to be drunk young and fresh. The 2025 is best opened by 2027, not kept.

Drink-now / hold guidance reflects general style cues for this wine, not a forecast for a specific bottle. Where vintage-level editorial notes exist, they appear above.
The Asti rules reserve Moscato d'Asti for vineyards of at least 97% Moscato Bianco, with 4.5% to 6.5% actual alcohol and a light sparkle from its own fermentation. Alasia's bottle sits at 5%.
Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.
Asti is in the DOCG tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.
Asti falls within Piedmont, covering 51 communes across the provinces of Asti, Cuneo and Alessandria, on hillside sites between 150 and 600 metres, preferably calcareous or calcareous-clay; valley floors and flat, light or damp soils are excluded.. The denomination is further divided into 2 sub-zones.

The Asti rules cap the grape yield at 10 tonnes a hectare and require at least 97% Moscato Bianco in the vineyard. The fruit costs more than grapes for a plain sweet fizz.
Fermenting in a sealed tank under controlled temperature and stopping it by chilling and filtering takes cold storage and care. It is what keeps the natural sugar and the gentle fizz.
Of the £9.99 bottle, about £2.66 is tax: about £1.00 duty at the rate for wine of 3.5% to 8.4% alcohol, plus about £1.67 VAT. Just over a quarter of the price.
Araldica farms over 1,400 hectares with about 180 member growers, so a bottle in its Alasia range costs less than a small estate's Moscato d'Asti.
Dishes that go with this wine
Fruit tarts, Piedmont's nut biscuits and blue cheese let its sugar, fizz and fresh finish do the work. Bitter dark chocolate and savoury main courses fight it.
The wine is sweeter than fresh fruit, so neither side tastes sour. Its apricot and grape flavours sit beside peaches, berries and pears, and the fizz keeps a fruit tart from feeling heavy.
Try with: Fruit salad · Peach tart · Bakewell Tart · Strawberries and cream
Honey and flowers in this Moscato d'Asti echo the toasted nuts in Piedmont's biscuits. Baci di Dama and amaretti are the local match, and the wine's sugar meets theirs without a clash.
Try with: Baci di Dama · Amaretti · Cantucci
Sweetness and salt pull in opposite directions and meet in the middle. Gorgonzola or Stilton with a cold glass of this sweet Moscato is a classic end to a meal.
Try with: Blue cheese · Gorgonzola with honey · Stilton
The fresh acidity on the finish cuts through cream, so cheesecake and panna cotta taste lighter. The wine's fizz does the same job a spoon of fruit sauce would.
Try with: Cheesecake · Panna cotta · Tres Leches Cake
Bubbles and acidity lift the oil of fried dough, and the wine's honey note matches the sugar dusted on top. Bunuelos, zeppole and plain doughnuts all work.
Try with: Bunuelos · Zeppole · Doughnuts
Bitter dark chocolate makes a 5% Moscato taste thin and watery. A savoury main course such as roast meat or a hot curry fights its sweetness. Keep this wine for the end of the meal.

It is a protected wine of the Asti zone in Piedmont, made from Moscato Bianco: the rules require at least 97% of the vineyard to be that grape. They describe the wine as sweet and aromatic, with a gentle sparkle from its own fermentation of no more than 2.5 bar of pressure.
