Martellozzo Veneto Prosecco (NV)

This wine was a nice surprise. The nose was refreshingly mineral with a whiff of apple. The body was just a bit off-dry but very fruit forward with nice, medium acidity and easy flavors of apple and pear. The finish was a bit short, but that is fine for a wine that would make a nice standalone before a meal or with light appetizers.

The bubbles in this one were very soft and pleasant. USD 6.99 at Trader Joe's in Maple Grove, MN.

I quoted your review of the Martellozzo Prosecco on my own blog today. Didn't get the same notes you did but liked it just as much.
