One of the appealing things about Prosecco is that it’s a sparkling wine that frequently costs less than many other sparklers. Sometimes, however, you find yourself wondering if that lower cost means lower quality. I believe you can find inexpensive Prosecco that offers outstanding quality. The wine I’m highlighting today is one such wine. The […]
When the summer heat kicks into high gear, many wine lovers want to have lighter, chilled wines, like Prosecco. Many of you probably already know that Prosecco is a sparkling wine from northern Italy, made using the Charmat method. The Charmat method involves putting the wine into pressurized stainless steel tanks during secondary fermentation in […]
Although the Corvezzo winery has been around since 1960, it might be a new name to you as their wines are making their debut the United States as of this year. Origins Organic Imports, which focuses on importing organically grown, value-priced wines, added three wines from Corvezzo to their portfolio this year — including this […]
One of the first things you’ll notice if you see this bottle of Prosecco are the words “organic & vegan” on the label. You might find yourself wondering how a wine could not be vegan. It has to do with the fining process, which is done to clarify and stabilize wine but often uses non-vegan […]
The locals in Veneto, Italy, where Prosecco is produced, refer to Prosecco as, “Welcome wine.” I like that. I’m a huge advocate for sparkling wines and believe all celebrations and get togethers should include sparkling wine. I know would welcome a glass of Prosecco when someone welcomes me to an event. One of the things […]
I’ve reviewed a couple other wines from Pasqua recently, and one thing I haven’t mentioned is that these wines are brought to us in the US by Bronco Wine Company, the fourth largest wine company in the US. When it comes to bargain wines, the portfolios at Bronco are massive and filled with great deals. […]
Barefoot is the largest wine brands in the world. I don’t know the exact numbers, but it’s one of those wines that can be found pretty much everywhere. Although it’s now owned by E&J Gallo, it was started by wine industry outsiders and built its following by appealing to people who normally wouldn’t drink wine. […]
Last week I did a write-up on the Mionetto Prestige Collection Prosecco and commented about how I’ve been coming across more and more of their wines lately. This is another Prosecco from their “IL” line and is also quite tasty. I love what Mionetto is doing with the packaging on their IL line sparklers. Rather than a […]
I’ve been coming across a number of different sparklers from Mionetto lately. They seem to be doing a marketing push and I’m seeing them everywhere. And after tasting some of their bubbly, I had to share this one with you. Prosecco is the focus at Mionetto, and they don’t just produce one. In the category of […]
In my last review, I revisited a wine brand that used to be a regular for me (back when I was in my twenties), Bolla. It’s a brand that offers plenty of decent wines at bargain prices, but for whatever reason it’s also a brand that I haven’t given a lot of love in the […]
