Cordero Sangiorgio Exergia Moscato d'asti 75CL

Cordero San Giorgio 'Exergia' Moscato d'Asti DOCG

The "Gourmet" Moscato – A Masterclass in Precision and Aromatic Purity

The Vibe

In 2026, the Cordero San Giorgio 'Exergia' is recognized as one of the most sophisticated expressions of Moscato d'Asti. Produced by the Cordero family—who carry the legendary winemaking heritage of the Vietti estate—this wine is designed to elevate Moscato from a simple dessert wine to a serious, "gastronomic" experience.

The name Exergia (Exergy) refers to the energy available to be used. In the glass, this translates to a wine that is not just sweet, but incredibly vibrant, "crunchy," and balanced by a level of acidity that makes it dangerously easy to drink.

The Nose

The aromatics are a high-definition explosion of the Moscato Bianco grape:

• The Floral: Intense notes of orange blossom, acacia, and jasmine.

• The Herbal: A very clear, refreshing signature of fresh sage and mint.

• The Fruit: Succulent layers of white peach, apricot, and litchi, with a zesty squeeze of lime.

The Taste

On the palate, the Exergia is light, creamy, and impeccably balanced.

• The Texture: The "frizzante" bubbles are tiny and soft, creating a delicate mousse that carries the sweetness without being cloying.

• The Profile: It hits with a natural grape sweetness that is immediately countered by a salty, mineral backbone. This "savory" finish is the Cordero trademark.

• The Alcohol: Very low (typically 5.5% ABV), making it the ultimate refreshing pour.

📋 Product Specs

Best Paired With:

• The Classic Match: Fruit tarts, hazelnut cake (Torta di Nocciole), or Panettone.

• The Savory Contrast: Strong blue cheeses like Gorgonzola Piccante or aged goat cheese. The salt-and-sweet combo is world-class.

• The Spicy Twist: Surprisingly excellent with Spicy Thai or Indian cuisine. The sugar tames the chili heat, while the bubbles refresh the palate.

• The Breakfast/Brunch: Fresh strawberries or a fruit salad with a splash of lime.

Pro Tip: In 2026, freshness is everything for this wine. Do not age it in your cellar—drink it as close to the vintage date as possible to catch those fleeting notes of sage and orange blossom. Serve very cold (6–8°C) in a standard white wine glass rather than a narrow flute to let the aromatics truly breathe.
