Prosecco for Summer

For a new take on bubbles this summer, think Italian, writes Tony Love on taste.com.au. Here are a few of his suggestions...

Dal Zotto Pucini Prosecco ($18), a spot on little refresher. More complexity and a tad drier is the Dal Zotto L'Immigrante Prosecco ($36). It's one of the top Aussie examples.

Brown Brothers 2011 Prosecco ($22) is widely sold, and offers an easy going suck of lemon sherbet in its flavour.

Christmont La Zona NV Prosecco ($22) has a crunch of crisp apple in it and is a classic fruit driven Australian sparkling style.

 

   

Chrismont 2011 Petit Manseng


A King Valley wine that will surprise with its orange zest, passionfruit and musk aromas. Full of wild, tropical imaginings and then palate interest with citrus, spice and lovely orange cream biscuit flavours. 4 out of 5 stars - A cut above
