Sorelle Bronca Prosecco D.O.C. di Valdobbiadene Spumante Extra Dry

This sparkling wine is a steal, about $17 retail. I think most people forget about prosecco, and there are plenty of forgettable efforts, however, Sorelle Bronca hit the mark. This wine is not too sweet, as the Extra Dry on the label tells us. It possesses just the right amount of acidity to balance off the slight sweetness to deliver a very refreshing glass of wine. It has wonderful floral and citrus notes on the nose (perhaps a bit of orange blossom and lemon grass?). It starts off a bit round and creamy, but has a long clean finish punctuated with lingering crisp citrus.

This is currently one of my favorite wines, one I buy by-the-case. If you are looking for something a bit different, and have not enjoyed prosecco in the past, give this one a try. I think you will enjoy it, and it may become one of you favorite wines as well.
