Grape Variety & Terroir: This Frizzante is made from a blend of local Italian white grape varieties, most commonly Glera (the primary grape in Prosecco), grown in the northeastern regions of Italy. The grapes thrive in the region's mix of calcareous soils and moderate climate, which helps to preserve their natural acidity and vibrant flavors.

On the palate, expect a crisp and zesty profile, with flavors of lemon, lime, and fresh orchard fruits. The fine bubbles are delicate, providing a smooth and easy-drinking experience, while the finish is clean and refreshing with a hint of minerality.

Pairings: This versatile Frizzante pairs perfectly with appetizers like bruschetta, antipasti, or light seafood dishes such as grilled shrimp or oysters. It’s also an excellent accompaniment to salads, soft cheeses, and fruit-based desserts. Ideal for picnics, brunch, or casual gatherings, it’s a wine made for celebrations both big and small.
