When it comes to finding bubbly wine at bargain prices, Prosecco can’t be beat. Actually, Prosecco is a grape variety from the Veneto region of Italy and there is some of it produced as still wine, but the vast majority of it is bubbly. Here’s one that is simply awesome and it’s about $10 to boot.
Why spend $40+ on fancy Champagne when this Prosecco is sooooo good, and it’s readily available? And why buy crappy sparkling wine, when you can get this stuff for just over ten bucks? So many people get crappy, cheap sparkling wine for weddings or New Year’s parties, but I say “no more!” Seek out the Prosecco section and wow your friends with this stuff.
What I really like about this Prosecco is the slight mineral quality on the nose. You’ll also find citrus and melon aromas. On the palate it’s only lightly sparkling — “frizzante.” Crisp apple and light citrus flavors with near perfect acidity make this a pleasant sipper. And at only 10.5% abv, it’s one you can sip a little more of before you’ve had too much. This wine goes well with rich salty foods, like olives, or could be served with fresh fruit.
