Verdi Spumante 187ML

Verdi Spumante 187ML is a semi-sweet Italian sparkling wine made from Moscato Bianco grapes, bottled at 5% ABV in a single-serve 187ml format. Produced by Bosca in the Piedmont town of Canelli — widely regarded as the birthplace of Italian sparkling wine — this expression has earned 23 Impact “Hot Brand” Awards across the Verdi and Sparkletini lines, a testament to its enduring popularity in the flavored sparkling category.Quick Facts: ABV: 5%  |  Origin: Piedmont, Italy  |  Varietal: Moscato Bianco  |  Producer: Bosca, CanelliProduction & HeritageBosca has been producing sparkling wines in Canelli, a town in the Asti province of Piedmont long associated with Moscato viticulture and spumante production. Verdi Spumante is made using the Charmat method, where secondary fermentation occurs in pressurized stainless steel tanks rather than individual bottles, preserving the bright, fruit-forward character of the Moscato Bianco grape. A distinguishing feature is Verdi’s patented resealable cork closure, engineered to keep the wine fresh for up to seven days after opening — an unusual innovation for sparkling wine and particularly practical in the single-serve format.Tasting NotesAroma: The nose opens with crisp green apple and ripe pear, followed by a gentle wave of lemon zest and white blossom. There is an immediate freshness that signals the wine’s low alcohol and delicate Moscato character.Taste: On the palate, the entry is soft and semi-sweet, with orchard fruit flavors — green apple and pear — arriving with clean precision. The mid-palate introduces subtle citrus oils and a faint mineral thread that prevents the sweetness from becoming cloying. A touch of peach emerges toward the peak, rounding out the fruit profile.Finish: The finish is light and refreshing, tapering off with lingering notes of fresh apple and a clean, slightly tart citrus quality. It leaves the palate crisp without excessive residual sweetness.How to Drink Verdi SpumanteServe well chilled, ideally between 38–42°F, straight from the bottle or poured into a flute. The low alcohol and gentle effervescence make it a natural standalone sipper, but it also works as a versatile mixer. A Moscato Spritz — Verdi topped with a splash of club soda and an orange wheel — amplifies the citrus notes beautifully. It works in a Bellini as a lighter-bodied substitute for Prosecco, pairing naturally with white peach purée. For something more playful, use it in a Sparkling Sangria with sliced green apple, pear, and a hint of elderflower liqueur, where Verdi’s fruit-forward sweetness ties the ingredients together.Best For
