New Wine Tasted:

QUARTESE RUGGERI VALDOBBIADENE, PROSECCO SUPERIOR, NV


For me prosecco's have always just been there, another 'trendy' wine that has seen its sales increase through simple word of mouth. I have generally have avoided prosecco's because some of the ones i have tried in pubs have been bland and boring. With our new range of wines, a new prosecco came in, slightly pricier than the ones we have stocked before but that is not always a bad thing!


Immediately in the glass i could see this was going to be different, it was super light and pale.
Beatiful on the nose, light, fresh, with little hints of pear and honey, but just light hints!
the first taste was just great, fresh, clean and super light bubbles. Lovely hints of pear just sitting in the background complimenting the dry clean taste. Good finish, not to lingering but just enough to keep you wanting more!!

This was a fantastic sparkling wine, one of my absolute favorites outside of champagnes, but saying that its probably better than some of the cheaper champagnes i have tried.
