It's got plenty of bubbles, which is more important than you may think (a lot of sparklers go flat way too soon). The nose and palate are full of minerals, sweet apple, pear, citrus and even a hint of tropical fruit.

Oh, and the mouthfeel! It feels lightweight, yet fills your mouth with flavor that goes on like a January 1st hangover, but likely won't cause one (it's only 11% alcohol). It's also much more pleasant than a morning-after headache/nausea combo. The finish never goes tart, sour or makes the room spin uncontrollably.

I truly can't think of a better wine with which to ring in the New Year. And, while it may take a little effort to find it (check in your better stocked wine shops), your reward will be a very happy Baby New Year.

Cheers,

Not having some bubbly on New Year's Eve is just wrong. It's almost as wrong as spending $40+ on a bottle of Champagne that you won't remember the next morning (or even get a glass of at the wrong party).

So, have your bubbly and keep your money, too. Grab a bottle of this affordable and amazing sparkler from Italy!

Prosecco isn't usually the sort of wine that people talk about toasting major milestones with. It's fun, but not usually all that complex or impressionable. This wine is both fun and memorable, and it comes in a bottle with a label pretty enough to plop down next to a bottle of expenso-Franco-bling-bling.
