Winery Review: Fresh, Grapefruit, Apples, Full-bodied. A light sparkling wine that is very delicate and fruity with a hint of ripe apples, lemons and grapefruit. It is perfect as an apertif, or with light dishes and sushi.
My Review: I tried this Prosecco at the Total Wine & More store, which means that it also was served in a plastic disposable cup. This is crucial for a sparkling wine, because it didnt allow the wine to fully express itself. On the nose I could hardly detect any aroamas at all, very disappointing. I've certainly tried better Prosecco with a lighter body, but stronger fruit characteristics. I could barely pick out a hint of grapefruit and apple, because it only became available at mid palate and didn't have a great finish. I'd take a pass on this prosecco and wait for something with more appealing aromas and characteristics.
