"Pale yellow-green, with a very fine mousse Reticent nose reveals a less floral and more mineral set of aromas than the Crede, with hints of jasmine and honeysuckle. Also less effusively fruity on the palate, with restrained apricot and white peach flavors. Overall a less forthcoming style of wine but one that leaves your mouth fresh and clean. Finishes quite dry, with moderate persistence." -Ian D'Agata

Tasting notes: The nose is intense, fresh, elegant and it features an extremely agreeable fruitiness of apples and
pear. Rich and balanced palate. Fantastic with risotto, pasta with vegetables, light fried fish. Great with sushi, sashimi, tempura and tofu. It is also the ideal Prosecco for preparing the original Bellini.

"Floral scents of lime and orange blossom give this a perfumed sweetness. Light green pear and yeasty notes balance it out. Serve it with a plate of cheese and fresh fruit."

"One of the best kept secrets of the Piedmont region of Northern Italy is a luscious red varietal called brachetto. A sweet, aromatic red, Brachetto is a lightcolored wine with distinctive aromas of rose and strawberry, moderate alcohol and a refreshing sparkle. It can be drunk during the different parts of the day. It matches well with desserts, especially chocolate-based, strawberries or as an aperitif." -The Importer

"Mionetto’s NV Prosecco Brut is a solid, reliable offering with good varietal character and balance. Still, it would be nice to see this large house make more ambitious wines. I recently saw Mionetto’s Prosecco being poured in one of Manhattan’s most fashionable hotel bars and couldn’t help thinking that Prosecco can be so much more. If the region’s top producers are truly serious about protecting the integrity of the Prosecco brand, the first place to start is by putting a higher quality product in the bottle. This is Lot: L10099. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2011." -Antonio Galloni

"100% Prosecco from the Veneto. This wine has an intense fruity bouquet with a hint of golden apple. Brut, fresh and light in body, Mionetto Prosecco Brut is well-balanced and easy to drink. This wine is perfect alone as an aperitif or as a delightful compliment to appetizers such as prosciutto or mild cheese." -The Winery

"A relaxed Prosecco, with delicate apple and cream character. A clean, easy drinker. Very creamy. Drink now. 1,395 cases imported." -JC

Sparkling wine, extra dry, made from 100% Prosecco di Conegliano ad Valdobbiadene D.O.C. It is a fresh light sparkling white wine with an harmonious floral bouquet, with a reminiscence of acacia and a gentle fruity aroma of apples, with a hint of citrus fruit.

"The NV Prosecco Brut is a richer, creamier wine than the Brut Cuvee Private. Here the fruit tends towards ripe yellow peaches, with flowers, spices and minerals that add complexity. The finish is long, generous and nicely balanced..." -Antonio Galloni
