Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The wine opens with a foamy, fun personality but does not ultimately provide that extreme vibrancy you usually get with Prosecco. This is a chewy, broad and opulent wine with mature fruit and a dusty quality.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Toasted nuts and mature peach are, unfortunately, matched by hints of sulfur and cardboard box. The mouthfeel is good with creamy texture and medium acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Prosecco Brut seems disjointed and unfocused because of the piquant soda and sharp citrus notes that define it. There’s a touch of matchstick in there as well—that blows off eventually—yet the sparkler never fully recovers.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There’s a touch of Graham cracker or oatmeal here that sits heavily over the sparkler’s natural aromas of mature peach and apricot (probably explained by the 15% component of Pinot Bianco in the blend). The quality of the effervescence also seems sharp and steely in the mouth.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Prosecco Extra Dry has a subtle, easy approach with measured fruit intensity but recognizable sweetness in the form of silky honey and melon. It offers a good measure of cleaning effervescence and chewy fruit to keep it going.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The sparkling wine opens with luminous perlage but the nose is a bit thorny and pungent with aromas of almond, peanut and pear that tickle the nose. It has direct citrus flavors and a long mineral finish backed by creamy froth.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Floral aromas, white peach and mineral tones make for a harmonious and elegant sparkler with a pretty, vibrant appearance in the glass. Fruity, nutty flavors add sophistication and elegance in the mouth.

Textbook Prosecco with clean citrus notes, peach, apricot and white flowers. There’s also a smooth, creamier texture to this wine that yields depth and a longer finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Delicate and elegant with wild flowers and loads of mineral-like layers. Zesty and cool in the mouth, with spicy acidity and good persistence. A real appetite-enhancing apéritif wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
White peach, exotic fruit, yellow rose and fragrant flowers yield a generally sweet sensation on the nose and palate. Refreshing, with a finish strongly driven by dusty-mineral sensations.
