Tasting - Prosecco


Candoni
Prosecco: 2011
Sparkling White/15.95
Italy › Veneto


Store Review: Delicate and fruity with a hint of honey. It is crisp and clean in the mouth with a pleasant acidity that leaves behind a delicious persisted freshness with a dry, well-balanced taste.

My Review: This one really surprised me because for whatever reason, I wasn’t expecting it to be sparkling so took a slightly larger sip than I probably should have. The pleasantly stunning sparkle made me think of a spicy salsa dancer.. again not a valid descriptor but still the first thought that popped into my mind. It’s hard to say if I only noticed this because I read it on the store review, but I could definitely taste the “hint of honey,”and enjoyed that it wasn’t too sweet. This one, for me, was a stand alone wine, didn’t really see it pairing with food.
