This is very dry and chalky with lemon-rind and dried-pear character. Medium-fine bubbles give form to the wine. It’s full and flavourful with a nice, dry finish. 92 points.
”Made by blending up to 60 different wines every year, 90% Chardonnay and 10% PN and PM, this flagship has been described as the finest entry level wine in Italy. Deliciously rounded, small bubbles and the right amount of fizz, this is spot on.
”Bright straw-yellow. Aromas of fresh apricot and sweet spices, plus whiffs of pineapple and banana. Then similar flavours on the slightly high-toned palate, but an enticing floral quality adds lift and a hint of welcome minerality provides more in the way of complexity. Finishes with good grip and persistence. 91 Points
”This tastes as good as it looks. Produced in Lombardy, using the Champagne method, it is considerably posher than Prosecco. With a nose of baked pastry, fresh lemon and a touch of apricot, it is complex on the palate, with a creamy texture and minerality balancing the pear and softer notes of wild honey.
”White flowers, green apple, almonds, zesty lemon peel and a pleasant taste of lemon biscuits combine in this elegant and vibrant Spumante. It has a persistent mousse and bubbles that last for long.
