LE CASETTE PROSECCO DOC NV
From Verona, in the heart of the Veneto, this sparkling wine is made of 100% Glera grapes. The grapes are gently pressed, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. A secondary fermentation takes place in steel tanks and then the wine is chilled. After a brief period of aging, the wine is filtered and prepared for bottling.
Prosecco is straw in color and has a persistent perlage (that’s Italian for effervescent) and this wine is indeed effervescent! Floral scents of almond blossoms and jasmine with ripe apple and hints of pear will be noted. The taste is medium dry, fruity, gentle acidity with a creamy finish. Well-chilled, this wine is perfect as an aperitif, and is an ideal accompaniment for fish and seafood.
