You want bubbles, you want them now, and you don't want to think too hard. This is your bottle. Fantinel Prosecco is soft and golden, all yellow apple and white flowers with a little kiss of honey, and the fizz is lively without being aggressive. It's Extra Dry, which on a Prosecco actually means gently fruity rather than bone dry, so it goes down easy and makes any random Tuesday feel like a reason to celebrate. Chill it, pop it, you're sorted.
Pour it and you get a pale straw colour with a fine, steady stream of tiny bubbles climbing the glass. Nose first: ripe golden apple, fresh white flowers, a touch of candied lemon zest and a faint hint of honey. On the palate it's soft and almost velvety, more orchard fruit and a flash of lemon, with a clean lift of acidity that keeps it bright and stops it ever feeling sweet. The finish is fresh and tidy, leaving you ready for the next sip.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
This comes from Friuli in Italy's far northeast, made by the Fantinel family. It started in 1969 when Mario Fantinel, a restaurateur and hotelier, bought his first vineyards. His sons took it on, and the third generation runs it now, with the home base near the old village of Spilimbergo. They work the local Glera grape, the one true Prosecco is built on, and the wine gets its sparkle through the Charmat method, a second fermentation in big steel tanks that locks in all that fresh, fruity character.
