Spumante is a type of sparkling wine from Italy, known for its effervescence and fruity flavors. It is typically made from Moscato grapes, which contribute to its sweet and aromatic profile. Spumante can be enjoyed as a dessert wine or as an aperitif, making it a versatile choice for various occasions. There are different styles of spumante, including Moscato d'Asti, which is lightly sparkling and lower in alcohol, and Asti Spumante, which is fully sparkling and sweeter. Both styles are popular for celebrations and pair well with desserts, fruit, and light dishes.
