Rive Della Chiesa Prosecco Frizzante 8/28
Treviso, Italy
crisp, green apple, honey
Rive Della Chiesa
is the producer, Prosecco is the wine, and Frizzante refers to its
sparkliness: more than still (Fermo), less than Spumante. Wine without a
year is non-vintage (NV), meaning it contains grapes from multiple
years. This is common of sparkling and dessert wines.
Like our previous Villa Jolanda, you'll taste and
smell honey and green apple, and it's got just a bit of sweetness.
However, this one is way better, with a crisp finish and more pleasant
bubbles.
As it's gained popularity, Prosecco has taken
on legal protections. Among these are that it has to be produced in
certain parts of northeast Italy and that it must contain > 85% Glera
grapes, which used to be called Prosecco grapes.
