Website Review: "Enjoy the refreshing, aromatic style and delicate palate of La Marca Prosecco. The liquid sparkles with lively bubbles and features a pale, gold color. Aromas of citrus and honeysuckle blossoms and a crisp, clean palate bring notes of green apple, juicy peach, and ripe lemon, framed by hints of minerality. The end result? A light and refreshing finish with a delectable hint of sweetness."

Wine Folly Text: Italy's most popular sparkling wine is created with Glera grapes grown in Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Common flavor notes include green apple, honeydew, pear, lager, and cream [pg 155]. Produced in the northeast region of Italy, Prosecco uses the tank method to produce a fruity sparkling wine meant to be drunk in its youth [pg. 256]. 

My Review:  🍷🍷🍷🍷(out of 5)

I really enjoyed this wine, it was the perfect light refreshing beverage to round out the night with a pal. My friend Gino came over to spill some tea and watch the last episode of Reacher, so of course I pulled out some wine to go with. On the nose, green apple, citrus, and pear notes could be pulled out. Once I tasted the wine, I could taste flavors of white peach and honeysuckle, in addition to the acidic green apple. This prosecco was fruity with a pleasant acidity. I enjoyed the light, crispiness of the wine, while Gino mentioned he found the big pops of apple to be delightful.
