Sparkling wine | Veneto, Valdobbiadene, Italy
Allow me to introduce you to Casa Vittorino Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Millesimato Brut by Astoria, a sparkling wine that perfectly embodies the joyful spirit of the Veneto region. Hailing from the prestigious Valdobbiadene area, this Prosecco is a testament to the meticulous winemaking and the unique terroir that makes this region so celebrated.
This Millesimato Brut is crafted primarily from Glera grapes, carefully harvested to ensure optimal ripeness and flavor concentration. The winemaking process involves a gentle pressing of the grapes, followed by a controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the delicate aromas and crisp acidity. The secondary fermentation, which gives the wine its delightful bubbles, occurs in pressurized tanks using the Charmat method.
On the nose, Casa Vittorino offers a bouquet of enticing aromas. Expect to be greeted by notes of fresh green apple, ripe pear, and a hint of citrus zest, all interwoven with subtle floral nuances of acacia and wisteria. These aromas create a vibrant and inviting aromatic profile that is both refreshing and complex.
The palate is equally delightful, with a lively effervescence that dances on the tongue. The wine is dry, with a crisp acidity that balances the fruity flavors. The flavors of green apple and pear are prominent, complemented by a subtle minerality that adds depth and complexity. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a lingering impression of fruity goodness.
This Prosecco is incredibly versatile and pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes. It's an excellent aperitif, perfect for kicking off any celebration or gathering. It also shines alongside light appetizers such as bruschetta with fresh tomatoes, seafood salads, or creamy cheeses. For a main course, consider pairing it with grilled fish, risotto primavera, or light pasta dishes with seafood or vegetable sauces. Its refreshing character also makes it a great match for spicy Asian cuisine.
