Food Matching Note:
Delicious on its own, this lighthearted wine will also accompany canapés to perfection. In bars in Venice it is served by the glass, which is known as an "ombra" or shadow. It accompanies "ciccheti" which are basically tapas. Small portions of salt cod on polenta are a classic!
Tasting Note:
A lively crisp sparkling wine with a delicate lemony character and an aromatic, dry, refreshing finish.
Vinification Note:
Prosecco grapes are harvested from vineyards near Venice and pressed gently to make a high quality and freshly acidic must. Cold settling for around 12 hours follows. The clear juice is then fermented to make a still wine. Sugar is then added and a secondary fermenation takes place in autoclaves under pressure to ensure that the bubbles are formed.
