Moscato, more properly known as Moscato d'Asti, is a sparkling white wine made from Muscat à Petits Grains, a white wine grape of Greek origin and part of the Muscat family. Moscato is a sweet, low-alcohol wine that is considered to be a dessert wine - sweet wines normally served with desserts.
Moscato d'Asti is made by small producers in small batches in the town of Asti in Montferrat, Piedmont, Italy. Records indicate that Moscato d'Asti has been made in Piedmont since at least the 14th century and Moscato bianco is considered to be one of the oldest grapes grown in that area.
