Besta Prosecco sem við höfum smakkað ! Þarf ekkert að hafa fleiri orð um það.

Description:
Here, more than a thousand years ago, Princess Isabella’s ancestors settled, building the first castle. Its name, too, became theirs, and they later won the rank of Counts of Collalto. And that is the reason that we decided to name our Rive di Collalto ISABELLA: a tribute to Princess Isabella and to the family that has succeeded, over the course of a thousand years, in preserving these hills in their natural beauty.

SOMMELIER NOTES

The wine displays a pale yet stylish straw-yellow, almost pin-point bubbles. The bouquet is immediately appealing, clean-contoured and precise, and distinctive for its elegance and finesse. It releases pronounced floral and fruit notes, plus a refreshing crispness that takes on a pleasant, minerally tang, backgrounded by a fragrant yeastiness that is judicious and well-integrated. The palate is notable for its evident cellarability yet immediate enjoyability, for a complex, creamy mousse that offers an unexpected degree of smoothness, and for its hint of sweetness. The wine demonstrates impressive balance between nose and palate, intensity of flavours, and an ultra-appealing, long-lived finish.

Food pairings
Rive di Collalto ISABELLA can be enjoyed throughout the meal, and in particular with preparations of fish, fried foods, and classic Veneto dishes such as nervetti (onion-seasoned pressed tendons of veal), fried brains of veal, and sauced bigoli.Best enjoyed at 6-8°C.
