F.lli Gancia & C. S.P.A. - Corso Libertà, 66 - Canelli (AT)
From the heart of the Asti DOCG, a magical territory where Moscato Bianco di Canelli reigns supreme, comes this sweet sparkling wine from Gancia. These hills, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are a real treasure, with a unique microclimate and calcareous soils that give the grapes an unmistakable aroma and flavour. The Moscato Bianco di Canelli is an aromatic grape, with an intense aroma and a sweet and delicate flavour. To make the most of it, Gancia uses only the free-run must, the most prized part, to create its Asti. Produced using the Martinotti, or Charmat, method, the refermentation in an autoclave brings out the primary aromas of the fruit to the maximum, creating a fresh, fragrant sparkling wine with a fine and persistent perlage. Bright golden yellow in colour and with a fine and persistent perlage, the nose clearly perceives intense aromas of exotic fruit, sage and honey. In the mouth, it is sweet, fruity and particularly balanced, with an aftertaste reminiscent of the grapes from which it is made. Gancia's Asti DOCG is perfect with cakes and desserts, but can also be enjoyed as a sweet aperitif. Thanks to its freshness and low alcohol content, it is an ideal wine for celebrating special moments or simply for treating yourself.
Since 1850, Cantine Gancia has been a symbol of excellence in the Italian wine scene, with a history that is intertwined with that of Italian sparkling wine. Founded by Carlo Gancia, a Piedmontese visionary, the company has been able to combine tradition and innovation, becoming a global point of reference for lovers of wine and quality aperitifs. After studying in Reims, France, Carlo Gancia returned to Italy with the ambitious goal of creating a sparkling wine that could compete with the best French champagnes. And so, in 1865, after years of experimentation, the first Italian Classic Method Sparkling Wine was born, made with Moscato grapes, a native variety of Piedmont. This wine, called Moscato Champagne, marked the beginning of a revolution in the world of Italian sparkling wine, laying the foundations for what would become one of the most innovative companies in the sector. But Gancia's innovation didn't stop there. Already at the end of the 19th century, the company launched the first Vermouth, a unique product of its kind, made - without the addition of caramel - based on an infusion of aromatic herbs on a Moscato base. This Vermouth, which won an award at the International Fair in Chicago in 1893, became a model for all subsequent producers, further consolidating Gancia's role as a pioneer in the sector. Today, Cantine Gancia is a global brand, present in over 70 countries with a range of products that includes Metodo Classico and Charmat sparkling wines, aperitifs, vermouth, bitters and gin. With a production capacity of over 40 million bottles a year and marvellous historic cellars, the company combines industrial production with artisan attention to detail, guaranteeing quality and authenticity at every stage of the process.
