More questions
The Asti Spumante DOCG Dolce "Conteso" by Cossetti Clemente is a celebration of Piedmontese winemaking traditions, proudly presenting a sweet sparkling wine that speaks directly to the hearts of bubbly enthusiasts. Produced from Moscato Bianco grapes, grown on the renowned hills of Piedmont, this sparkling wine is the result of care and attention that only a historic winery like Cossetti Clemente can offer.
The vinification of "Conteso" follows the Charmat method, allowing the wine to mature in large, closed containers to preserve the natural aroma of Moscato and ensure unrivaled freshness. The color is typically straw yellow with brilliant golden highlights, while the fine and persistent bubbles caress the palate in a symphony of sensations.
On the nose, "Conteso" expresses a seductive bouquet of white flowers, featuring prominent notes of acacia and wisteria, enriched by nuances of peach and apricot. The taste is intensely sweet but balanced, thanks to fresh acidity that leads to a pleasantly aromatic and lingering finish. This sparkling wine is a sublime example of how the right balance between sweetness and acidity can create a complex and rewarding taste experience.
Perfect as an aperitif, it pairs splendidly with fruit-based desserts and fine pastries, but it can also be served with blue cheeses or as a post-meal accompaniment for a toast filled with sweetness. Serve "Conteso" well-chilled to enhance all its organoleptic qualities and be surprised by its refined effervescence and unmistakably luxurious taste.

The story
The Cossetti family has been involved in Piedmont viticulture for generations: their entrepreneurial activity is traced back to the transition from farm to winery in 1891. Today the family business is in the hands of the next generations, who have maintained a focus on Monferrato's production traditions while integrating modern techniques and international marketing.
Production philosophy
Seeking to express the terroir through a balance of tradition and innovation, careful vineyard management and a focus on fruit quality, with an approach also oriented toward the winery's sustainability.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located in Castelnuovo Belbo, in the heart of the Monferrato, in the province of Asti. The estate produces wines under Piedmont appellations, including areas such as Asti, Alba, Nizza and the Gavi area, reflecting the variety of the region’s micro-terroirs.
