Ceretto is one of the biggest names in Barolo, but not only. The bond with the land, the traditional style, technological innovation and the gradual conversion to organic farming at Ceretto involve all the denominations in the lower Piedmont region. Among these, Moscato d'Asti naturally stands out, which the family has managed to turn into an iconic product, a symbol of quality at the best price.
The unusual and daring shape of the bottle, designed in the 1990s by Giacomo Bersanetti, makes this Moscato d'Asti immediately recognisable. Bersanetti's creative genius is also responsible for the label showing a crescent moon of light yellow colour, a tribute to the typical straw colour of Moscato and to the Monferrato writer Cesare Pavese, author of the famous novel La luna e i falò (The moon and the bonfires).
The nose is intense, aromatic, fruity, as befits an excellent Moscato d'Asti. The notes are textbook: sage, aromatic herbs, peach, passion fruit, but there are also mineral puffs, candied scents and a slight balsamic note. The sweet and aromatic flavour, in balance with the low alcohol content, and a pleasant freshness, make this label a versatile and pleasant solution both for dessert and for an unusual creamy and appetizing aperitif.
