The palate is light-bodied and zesty, with flavors of crisp apple, lemon zest, and a hint of white peach. The acidity is well-balanced, providing a refreshing and lively mouthfeel. Benvolio Prosecco is a versatile wine that can be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif or paired with a variety of dishes. Its bright and lively character makes it a perfect companion for seafood, light salads, and fresh cheeses.
