Marco Negri Moscato dAsti proves that sweet and damn good wine can exist in the same sentence and the same bottle.
Its a wine from the Asti province of Italys Piemonte region. Asti, of course, is known for producing bubbly wines (as in Asti Spumante), and this moscato is no exception.
Marco Negri is chock full of fruity goodness. I smelled some melon, peach, and a hint of sweet, mandarin oranges. Its extraordinarily light in the mouth, with a flavor that hangs around a bit. As is the style of Asti wines, this one is lightly fizzy, but nowhere near as bubbly as Champagne or Prosecco. Thats as it should be.
This very light-yellow straw-colored wine is basically a dessert wine, but reviewers suggest that it would pair well with spicy foods. It is sweet, but also very light, with a good bit of citrus that lifts the sweetness. Even better, it has a hint of effervesence...not anywhere near as much as a true sparkling wine, but noticeable. The bubbles were very fine, and combined with the sweetness and citrus tones to create a very crisp wash of flavor, with a nice mouth feel--extremely refreshing. I feel that I could drink this all day, and I'd like to try that sometime. I enjoyed this wine VERY MUCH.
