Though a newer release of this wine, you can expect this bottling to deliver similar quality and pleasure to that described in the review below, and to be a fine reflection of this producer's house style. TASTING NOTE: ... a delicious prosecco that you can sip on its own to take to the table. There's plenty of fruit here, and the flavours hold well from start to finish, with plenty of definition and complexity. The acidity shows through well, adding clean brightness to the texture, there are plenty of fine bubbles, and the mousse has both substance and softeness. It's a glass of pleasure. Score - 4 1/2 Stars (out of 5) (Rod Phillips, winealign.com, May 10, 2014) |
