Bepin De Eto Prosecco Superiore Extra Dry Millesimato DOCG 2024 in gift box

Bepin De Eto works in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG, the hilly top zone of the Prosecco Superiore region in Veneto, where steep vineyards and cooler nights lend the fruit its freshness. This Extra Dry Millesimato is a single-vintage Prosecco made from Glera and bottled in magnum for gatherings and gifting. Like most Prosecco it is a tank-method wine, with the second fermentation carried out in pressurised steel to keep the fresh fruit and floral aromatics intact rather than build autolytic weight. The Extra Dry dosage leaves a little more roundness than a Brut, which comes across as ripe fruit rather than obvious sweetness.

The colour is light straw with a fine, lasting perlage. The nose is soft and fruity, with apple, pear and white peach over white flowers and a hint of honeysuckle. The palate is fresh and gently fruity, with a soft mousse and a clean, harmonious finish. Serve well chilled at around 6 to 8 degrees. It works as an aperitif and alongside light salads, white fish and fresh goat cheese.
