WINE DESCRIPTION
Cà dei Zago Col Fondo Prosecco is an unfiltered Prosecco that has undergone a second fermentation in bottle. This wine hails from the Prosecco appellation, located in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. The wine is composed mostly from the aromatic Glera with a small proportion of local varieties making up the remainder of the blend. The winemaking process involves a traditional method called "Col Fondo," where the wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, resulting in a natural effervescence. The wine is bottled and sold with its lees (decomposing yeast) which results in a slightly cloudy, texturally complex sparkling wine.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Cà dei Zago Col Fondo Prosecco reveals a slightly hazy appearance on pouring, with a pale straw color.On the nose, it offers aromas of ripe orchard fruits, such as apple and pear, accompanied by floral notes of white flowers. These delicate scents are complemented by a subtle hint of yeastiness.The palate of this Prosecco is lively and refreshing, with a fine and persistent perlage that dances on the tongue. The flavors mirror the aromas, with crisp apple and pear taking center stage, followed by a touch of citrus zest that adds a zingy brightness on the moderate length finish.
