Galera Chardonnay at 90% and then 10% muscat. And the muscat shows kinda throw. Has the salty spice but then also a flowery thing going on. Not a straight prossecco. A little bit more on premise-y I am being told.

Giant Wine Sale & Tasting, 12/13/2014 Cellar on Greene, Columbia, SC (Cellar on Greene, Columbia, SC): The last time we reviewed this NV Prosecco was in 2012, so it is safe to say in 2014 we are tasting a different wine. The last time, we noticed, and greatly appreciated the addition of some Chardonnay and Muscat to the base wine. This release seems to have an addition of 5% Chardonnay, and no Muscat. The result is still a richer, deeper sparkler than is typical for Prosecco. It almost resembles a lighter Champaign from France. The bubbles are very active and refreshing. The lively peach and pear fruit has a spicy edge. The balancing acid is super crisp leaving the finish clean and dry.

very light - crystal clear with greenish reflexes. A lot of bubbles at the begining. Later the foam fades but bubbles still fast. nose: mix - apples Granny Smith plus othe more ripe (sweet and sour); later becoming more stuffy and flowery. taste: sweet, too sweet as for brut - tireing. Very ripe - melon plus pears. Thicker, bitterish finish.

Fresh & peachy, touch of rs, but refreshing, plenty of lemony, zesty notes to keep this interesting. Bubbles are a little aggressive.
