This Italian wine tastes like Asti, but both its taste and alcohol are a little stronger than Asti.
What is the name of this Italian wine?
It might be a "moscato", or "moscato amabile" ("amabile" means sweet).
I don't think it's a prosecco, as the first answerer said, since prosecco is dry, while Asti spumante is sweetish. You didn't specify, however, whether the wine you mean is a sparkling wine also.
Asti spumante is just one of many wines made from white "moscato" grapes.
Here is a Wikipedia page with a listing of Italian DOC and DOCG white moscato-made wines; maybe you'll recognize the one you're looking for:

Key:
"secco" = dry
"amabile" = sweet
"passito" = a raisin wine
"spumante" = sparkling wine, like champagne
"tranquillo" = still (non-sparkling)
"frizzante" = semi-sparkling
"liquoroso" = denser, like a liqueur
