A delicate and celebratory wine all the way from the finest grapes of Freixenet, Italy, Freixenet Prosecco NV is a mix of fresh and fruity. Subtle fragrances of flower, citrus and apple complement an equally light palate that is perfect for just about any occasion.

Complex and velvety with hints of ripe yellow apple, yellow plum, whiteflowers – predominantly white rose, slightly spicy and balsamic. The low sulphur enhances a deeper and more clear-cut sense of the aromas. Intense and noble, it recalls the complexity of the aroma and hints of fruit.

This is the Australian benchmark for bubbles in this price range and will hold its position as the ever-reliable party favourite. The Chandon Rose is pink in colour and delivers enticing aromas of freshly baked pastry and nougat along with spice notes and hints of cherry and ripe strawberry. The palate is multi-layered with mouth-filling red berry flavours complemented by toasty characters. A beautifully structured mid-palate is supported by savoury spice and fine creamy notes.

As Prosecco continues to garner the acclaim it rightly deserves in Australia as a refreshing and delicious sparkling wine perfectly suited to our climate, it's not hard to get excited when premium examples like the Santa Margherita Superiore 52 comes along. Simply bursting with flavours of ripe apple skins, this classic example is refreshing in the extreme. Light and fluffy on the palate with a persistence of flavour that is unrivalled. Superb.

Effortless harmony and elegance is the simplest way to describe the sublime Henri Laurent Champagne. Rich in character and texture with dried apricot and honeyed notes, this is remarkable value non-vintage Champagne.

A stunning half bottle Champagne from France. A nose containing confectionery notes (brioche, cocoa beans, vanilla) with strong hints of pink grapefruit. Superb freshness on the palate, delicious and structured with notes of toasted oak.

Santa Margherita Prosecco di Valdobbiandene has a very fine, persistent bead and scents of apples and pears that act as a prelude to the flavors of ripe stone fruit with a bit of melon and orange. Fresh and lively with a long, dry, yeasty finish. Bargain.

This Prosecco should be drunk young to best appreciate its heady aromas of flowers and fresh fruit flavours. Serve chilled between 6 and 8oC and enjoy with seafood, fennel risotto and good friends.
