This brand is inspired by the 1600 Baroque movement, the same date when the first documented evidence of Prosecco was recorded. Like this wine Baroque was born in Italy and aimed to express the splendour and power of the Church and monarchies of that time. Similarly, this soft, sumptuous sparkling wine from the Botter family is perfect for celebrations. From the temperate Veneto region where the Glera variety is protected from the alpine winds and ripens perfectly on the clay sandstone soils. Soft pressed juice is cool-fermented then refermented using the Martinotti Charmat method. An understated, subtle, fruity bouquet with notes of peach, green apple and lilac gives way to a charming, fresh, lively palate. Ideal as an aperitif , it also pairs with fish, shellfish and canapes.
ABV: 11%
