Let’s start with a confession – the Wine Witch is not the biggest fan of Asti Spumante. Most of it is just a slight, fizzy step above a wine cooler. These sparklers tend to be quite sweet, which may be exactly what you are looking for.
The best of the bunch is the offering from Martini & Rossi. This is a very zesty wine that drinks as sweet as it smells. What saves it is a refreshing dose of acidity which keeps it from being too cloying. The flavor impressions are vanilla and honeysuckle with a bit of buttery cream.
The Martini & Rossi Asti Spumante is a light, refreshing after dinner sipper that would go well with fruit and pastry desserts.

I’m with you, WW. I can’t stand the stuff. To me it tastes like Mountain Dew-kie.
