Prosecco is more popular than ever. This effervescent wine made from Glera grapes harvested in Northeastern Italy’s region of Veneto provides the ultimate refreshment. Its simple stone fruit and citrus aromas accompanied by a tantalizing fizz is well suited for sipping on its own or to liven up a sparkling cocktail.
This wine is made from grapes harvested from cordon-trained vines planted in alluvial soils. After a soft press, the must is cooled and then fermented in stainless steel. Secondary fermentation occurs using the Charmat method.
TASTING NOTES
Aromas of fresh peaches leap from the glass along with hints of honeysuckle and melon. Once sipped, a shower of foamy bubbles dances soulfully on the tip of your tongue and then bursts into a medley of crisp citrus fruit. The region of Prosecco is located not far from Venice, sitting between the mountains and the sea. The best vineyards are in the hillsides and benefit from the cooling night temperatures and alpine breezes.
