Biagio Sparkling Wine
Italian bubbles from Veneto and Piedmont, priced for the everyday table.
The story behind Biagio
Biagio sparkling wine comes out of two Italian regions, not one. The Prosecco is Glera from the Veneto; the Moscato d'Asti is Muscat from Piedmont. Both are made by the Martinotti method, with secondary fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks, so the fruit and flowers stay forward and the yeast stays in the background. No oak, no long lees aging, no brioche. Non vintage, bottled fresh.
The label belongs to Biagio Cru Wines and Spirits, a family owned importer founded in 1998 and based in New Hyde Park, New York, run by principal Darren Restivo. That is a short trip from our counter on Jericho Turnpike, and we have poured these bottles for years because they do exactly what a value sparkling wine should do.
Explore the Biagio range
Two sparkling expressions carry the Biagio name here: Prosecco from the Veneto and Moscato d'Asti from Piedmont, both non vintage and both built for cold glasses and casual food.

|---|---|---|---|
| Biagio Prosecco 750mL | Prosecco (Glera), Veneto | 11% ABV | Dry, crisp, green apple and white flower, fine bead |
| Biagio Moscato D' Asti 750mL | Moscato d'Asti (Muscat), Piedmont | 7% ABV | Sweet, low alcohol, peach, orange blossom, gentle fizz |

Which Biagio is right for you?
Nothing here needs a justification. Biagio Moscato d'Asti runs $9.99 for a 750mL, and the Prosecco is $10.99, which puts real Italian bubbles in the same bracket as a couple of coffees. If you are feeding a table, the 1.5L bottles carry the value further: Chianti at $13.99 and Pinot Grigio at $14.99. These are everyday prices on wines we have stocked for years, and they are the reason people buy Biagio online from us and then come back for the magnum.
Dry Glera at 11% is the right base for mimosas and spritzes without wrecking the budget.
7% ABV, softly sweet, and it handles fruit tarts and soft cheese better than most.
One big bottle, dry and easy, keeps a crowd poured without a second trip.
