Prosecco

Prosecco is a sparkling wine from the Veneto region of Italy, primarily made from the Glera grape. Recognized for its light, bubbly character, Prosecco can be found in both fully sparkling (spumante) and lightly sparkling (frizzante) forms. It typically presents a lower alcohol content and a fresh, approachable style.

In terms of its scent profile, Prosecco is celebrated for its aromatic and fruit-forward nose. It commonly exhibits vibrant aromas of green apple, pear, white peach, and apricot, mingled with floral notes such as honeysuckle and acacia blossom. Citrus elements like lemon zest and lime can also be prominent, adding a fresh, crisp edge. Additionally, some nuances of almond or hazelnut might emerge, particularly in richer styles.

Prosecco's effervescence enhances these aromatics, making it a refreshing choice for a variety of occasions, from casual gatherings to more formal celebrations. Its fruity and floral characteristics make it a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a wide range of dishes.
