Villa Sandi Nero Prosecco Superiore DOCG

Villa Sandi produces this Prosecco Superiore DOCG from Glera grown on the calcareous hills of Valdobbiadene, where the microclimate and mineral soils favour fine, aromatic fruit. It is a tank-method wine, with gentle pressing followed by fermentation and a period of maturation on the fine lees in temperature controlled tanks, which lends a little extra roundness to the fresh fruit. The Extra Dry style leaves a gentle roundness on the finish that reads as ripe fruit rather than sweetness.

The colour is very pale straw with a fine perlage. The nose is fruity, with green Granny Smith apple to the fore and a floral hint of acacia blossom. The palate is pleasant and elegant, with pear, white peach and a soft floral thread, closing long, harmonious and gently rounded. Serve well chilled at around 6 to 8 degrees. It works as an aperitif and alongside marinated fish, fresh salads and light seafood.
