NV Ca' di Prata Prosecco Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG, Italy, Veneto/Friuli, Wine Review

From the heart of Prosecco country in northeasy Italy, this is a serious Prosecco. Made from 85% Glera with the remaining 15% other varietals. Pale silvery/gold in color. Lots of smaller bubbles. The nose has minerals and Vernors soda (sort of carmelized ginger and seltzer). It has a bigger presence. Ginger and mineral notes, slightly candied. Not tart, but well balanced. Almost dry. Long finish. This drinks well on its own but will work better with food. Fried chicken would be a nice choice. A real crowd pleaser.

This Prosecco is made from 85% Glera and 15% Chardonnay grapes. Silvery gold in color with a nice mousse of medium sized bubbles. The nose has a pleasant yeasty quality to it along with golden apples, and slight ginger notes. Medium bodied. Good acidity. On the palate, there is a hint of sweetness as this comes across as off-dry. Apples with a touch of honey and slight ginger. Long finish. This is nice on its own and worked with with fried appetizers. Drink over the next few years.

Light golden in color. A nice frothy head of medium sized bubbles. The nose is nice with pears and slight minerality. On the palate, this is dry. Minerals. Easy to drink. At $15, this is also easy on the budget. A nice choice for holiday festivities. 100% Glera grapes.

This is a Prosecco from the Friuli region in northeast Italy. It is made from 85% Glera and 15% other grapes including Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay. Silvery green/gold in color. Some medium bubbles make a nice frothy head. On the nose, limes, minerals and lanolin along with a bit of sweaty earthiness give it a nice nose. On the palate, the fruit shifts to a more tart green apple note. Good acidity. Nice frothy mouth-feel. This has a sweet and sour quality that is enjoyable. Very food friendly. This drinks well on its own, but will work very well with salty or fried foods.

Kirkland is the in house brand for Costco. They contract out a wide variety of wines and many of them including this one are very good and great values. This sells for $7.Silvery green and gold in color. A modicum of medium sized bubbles. The nose is reticent but with minerals and limes/green apples. It opens with a bit of air but is never strong. It is better and stronger on the palate. Clean. Just a hint of sweetness, just barely. Good acidity. Good finish. This is food friendly and easy to drink. Made for immediate consumption, for $7, this is a no brainer for parties and coo

Silvery/gold in color. A moderate mousse with medium sized bubbles. Clear and bright. The nose is nice with a hint of green apples and slight peach notes. Medium bodied. On the palate, this has a soft, easy to drink texture. Apples and peaches with good acidity. Moderate finish. This drinks well on its own, but should be better with food. Very food friendly. It would go well with pasta with a cream sauce. Drink now.
