Wine Tasting Group - Winemaker Decisions - June 8, 2019 (Julie's home): L8149T - Prosecco made by Charmat method - secondary fermentation for bubbles occur in large pressurized stainless steel tanks (rather than in bottle as in traditional Champagne method) often with a little residual sugar left. Mild yeasty/brioche aromas with citrus and tart apples. The palate is more mellow with ripe apples, mild bread/brioche flavors. Nice bubbles add a welcome texture to the wine. Relatively simple but very gulpable.

Brought this wine to a wine dinner with a group of wine mates' at Chin Lee Restaurant. Theme of the evening: indigenous Italian grapes.
Bubbly with a clear body; the dryness of the wine is somewhat startling; refreshing with notes of white stone fruits. Clean, crisp with a creamy texture.
A causal wine best served as an aperitif; although it can be paired as a starter with appetisers.

MNB: Tank-method sparkling wines (Home (Noe st)): (non-blind - my wine) Pale straw color. No autolysis but rich green apple. Slight white peach (slightly terpenic) Weaker mousse - maybe 2-3 atm, not 5-6 (Champagne) Feels around 10g RS (actually Extra-Dry - 12-17g), 12% alcohol, medium plus acid, mild bitterness. Green apple skin finish with a hint of dough.
A little coarse, but ok at the price point (~$19)

Definitely extra dry. This wine is a delight. Pairs well with oysters. Fine bubbles that dance on your tongue. Stone fruit. Mild acidity.

Deliziosamente bilanciato. Il migliore prosecco extra dry non millesimato che ho bevuto.
