Prosecco DOC
Veneto, Italy

BUBBLY WINE STYLE

Avissi Prosecco is clean and bright, a crisp sparkler with soft, elegant bubbles that flutter in the glass, giving a lovely effervescence to each sip. A beautiful balance of heady floral notes and luscious fruit makes it imminently approachable. It’s the perfect wine to take-out after work or all dressed up on a Saturday night. Or, somewhere in between (hello, Sunday brunch). Drink on its own, or try it in a boozed up cocktail! See recipe below…

Critical Acclaim:

  • 92 points – “Scents of honeysuckle and gardenia are sweet and delicate. The melting bubbles perform gracefully, accenting flavors of linen and orange cream. White rice and Asian pear dot the mid-palate and the finish is redolent of green apple. The liquid is as unique as this wine’s memorable packaging.” – Meredith May, Tasting Panel Magazine

Avissi’s Sugar & Spice Cocktail:
Just in time for fall! The balance of sweetness with a kick of spice will offer a flavorful profile, perfect for cooler weather.

WINEMAKING NOTES:
“The new member of the Collection de Diel is made from white and Pinot Noir grapes, aged in stainless steel tanks and bottled in classic champagne bottles. It is a bottle fermentation par excellence, like all Diel sparkling wines, and sits on the yeast for around 1.5 to 2 years. That’s what makes it so tingling, light as a feather and exhilarating.
