Pale straw colored with very little mousse. The nose has aromas of white flower, apricot, green almond and melon. The palate is dry with medium acidity and a light body, the effervescence finally appearing and in a not-too-subtle way. Florals are the main driver on the palate with some melon, pear and almond backing them up. The finish is medium in length. 87 points from me for this $12 bottle makes it a 3 star wine that I actually bought to mix with Vincenzi Rosso- like a spritz. It was on sale for a penny, the catch being that you need to mix it with something fizzy so I had to pop for the bubbly. The bottle I got is cherry flavored and the resulting cocktail is decent on a hot summer’s eve. Salut….
