We are about to celebrate a sparkling New Year, traditionally rung in with bubbly. There are lots of libations to choose from, but I suggest popping the cork on Prosecco, a slightly sweet and especially festive sparkling wine.
A preferred pour is Mionetto Prestige Brut (MSP, $14), made from Glera grapes from the province of Treviso, an area renowned for high quality Prosecco, with a luminous straw yellow hue, stylish mousse and a palate marked by aromatic notes of honey and white peach.
Mionetto Prestige Rosé Extra Dry ($14 750ml / $4 Mini 187ml) is pretty in pink, a sparkling rosè produced by the soft pressing of red grapes.
Pull out all the stops with Mionetto Luxury Cartizze DOCG ($45). This elegant Cartizze is elevated by luminous golden tones and delicate beads of tiny bubbles. The bouquet is lush and fruity
with apple and pear with notes of citrus and glazed almond.
Let’s raise a glass, share a kiss and look forward to the next decade. Cheers to a fabulous 2020!
