Prosecco sales in the UK went up by 75% in 2014 alone; this year sales overtook champagne and 1 in 3 bottles of sparkling wine sold today will be Prosecco. But will this wine strip your teeth of enamel…? Good prosecco costs a little more, and this is good sparkling wine and good value at £10.
Tasting notes: Lively, crisp, aromatic. Fresh with lemon, pear and apple flavours and a floral hint. It has a dry finish and a fine persistent mousse. Unusually this prosecco is not a blend – it’s 100% Glera.
