Cavicchioli Prosecco 1928

About This Wine

This particular Prosecco is made entirely from Glera grapes, predominantly sourced from the Treviso province in Italy. It presents a pale straw yellow color, adorned with a delicate white foam and a vibrant, fine, and enduring perlage. Its aromatic profile is intense, featuring notes of candied fruits such as apricot and mango, alongside sweet floral hints, often accompanied by nuances of jasmine, citrus, apple, and pear. On the palate, it is fresh and delicate, offering a refreshing acidity that complements notes of pear, white peach, sliced almond, and candied lemon zest, culminating in an aromatic finish with a subtle hint of lemon zest. While labeled "Extra Dry," which in wine terminology indicates a slight sweetness, it is generally perceived as having just a touch of sweetness, contributing to its crisp and versatile character. Best enjoyed young and well-chilled, it excels as an aperitif or when paired with appetizers, light first courses, and various fish dishes.
