Italian sparkling wines - gems from smaller vineyards
Sparkling wines in general are associated with special and festive occasions - whether it's New Year's toasts, weddings or birthday parties and other anniversaries. But those from Italy go even further. They are so versatile that they can be used for a complete menu from aperitif to dessert, and in addition to celebrations, you can enjoy them at a family dinner, party, picnic or sitting with friends.
Prosecco - elegant and modern at the same time
It gained its worldwide popularity mainly due to its simple, yet very refined taste. It is made from a vine variety called Glera, which must be at least 85%. Prosecco is characterized by a sweet, fresh taste evoking fruit, delicate sparkling and a floral-citrus aroma. It is also an integral ingredient of the popular Aperol spritz.

Franciacorta - Italian equivalent of champagne
This wine, like Champagne, is produced by the method of secondary fermentation in the bottle and even has a very similar varietal composition. It is therefore not surprising that they are often compared. Compared to prosecco, expect a drier, fuller and creamier taste with hints of brioche or toast.
Frizzante, spumante - differences and characteristics
In connection with Italian sparkling wines, there is talk of the so-called frizzante and spumante. What's the difference between them?
- Frizzante
It is characterized by finer sparkling and lower 4-6% alcohol values. It is light, refreshing and suitable for regular drinking. - Spumante
This is a wine with a higher alcohol content and bottle pressure. It is also more sparkling and suitable for more festive occasions.
