Its colour is a bright ruby red. On the nose, it is clean and precise, with hints or morello cherries, wild berries and a moderate spiciness. The palate reveals a full and firm flavour, expressing all its intensity and elegance.

Col Fondo Prosecco undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle and isnt disgorged. The flavoursome leesy sediment dances on the bottom, hence col fondo, literally meaning from the bottom. This is how Italian prosecco used to be crafted before industrialisation turned it into mostly cheap fizz made in stainless steel tanks. This is complex, refreshing, lightly fizzy with plenty of acidity keeping it alive and kicking.

Intense and delicate perfumes, of roses and wild strawberries Floral notes reminiscent of roses with hints of cherries on the palate, extremely fresh, yet with a velvety character. Persistent bubbles and a long finish.

Sweet style of Vermouth to be enjoyed with cola or over ice.

The Italian style of Bianco Vermouth (spicy, with a little sweetness) offers an alternative to the extra dry style for a range of cocktails.

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.

Garnet red in colour, the bouquet is intense and persistent, fruity with a winery note. Flavour: wood, medium body, good tannins, balanced and ready to drink. Excellent with all the typical courses of Italian traditional cooking.

Prosecco Spritz is best enjoyed with great friends, a large wine glass, ice and a generous orange segment. For food, share plates are best. Think Szechuan pepper seafood bites with a wasabi mayonnaise. Charcuterie with sun dried tomatoes and marinated artichokes.

Gentle white peach and jasmine notes combine in the glass in this delightful summer bubbles. Approachable and crowd pleasing, this is the perfect thing to serve your guests if you need to impress!

Tiny bubbles that swell up in your mouth and linger for quite a while are a feature of this sparkling Italian wine. The sweet smell of honey gives way for fruity notes of gala apples and ripe pears on the plate, which were enhanced by the slight boost of sweetness.
