Duchessa Lia Fragolino Bianco 75cl
★★★★½ 4.5 (2 reviews)Pop this and your glass fills with the smell of fresh strawberries. It's a sweet, fizzy white from Italy that drinks like a treat, soft bubbles, low 7% so it stays easy and fun all evening. Chill it down, pour it for the crew, and watch it disappear. Perfect for a celebration, a lazy Sunday, or a late one when you want something playful instead of serious.
The nose is pure ripe strawberry, big and friendly, with a little orchard apple behind it. On the tongue it's properly sweet and gently fizzy, more soft mousse than aggressive sparkle, with the bubbles tickling rather than biting. It finishes clean and lingering, like the last bite of a strawberry off the punnet. Think dessert in a glass, not a dry, austere bubbly.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Duchessa Lia is from Piedmont in northwest Italy, the same famous corner that gave the world Moscato and Barolo, with vineyards across the Astigiano, Monferrato and Langhe hills now listed as UNESCO World Heritage. Fragolino means 'little strawberry' in Italian, a nod to that unmistakable berry character. The house leans on generations of local know-how to turn out a bottle that's all about easy enjoyment rather than ceremony.
