Belcanto Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore - Bellussi

Made In: Valdobbiadene, Veneto, Italy

Bottle Size:750 mL bottle

Alcohol/Vol:11.9%

Sugar Content:12 g/L

Sweetness Descriptor: XD - Extra Dry

Style: Light & Fruity

Varietal: Sparkling - Dry

Quite a vibrant yet mineral expression of upper-tier Prosecco here with both power and finesse. Intense green pear core is shot through with steely, stony minerality that tapers to a long, slow finish of white mushroom and lime. Bright acidity hides some residual sugar so it tastes drier than it is - and perfectly balanced. Much concentration and complexity for the price. Serve it with fish or seafood - ideally, grilled sardines on toast
