La Gioiosa Prosecco DOC NV 200ml (Italy)

Description

Dry, Floral, Melon

"Expressive and appealing, this charming sparkling wine offers classic Prosecco drinkability. Lifted aromas of ripe stone fruit, rockmelon, citrus and brioche lead to a beautifully weighted palate that is rounded and smooth, wonderfully supported by juicy acidity. A lovely drink for any occasion." Sam Kim Wine Orbit , Mar 2017

Very pale straw yellow and a fine, persistent perlage. The aroma is very fruity and flowery with hints of ripe golden apple and small mountain flowers. The dry, fresh and flavoursome sensation on the palate is followed by a fruity and harmonious aftertaste.

La Gioiosa winery and its sister winery Villa Sandi are both run by the 3rd generation’s Giancarlo Polegato who also hold the position of President of the Wine Producers of Treviso. The family also hold a substantial interest in GEOX footwear brand. La Gioiosa Prosecco is known not only for the quality of its wine but also its distinctive proprietary bottle with its bright, friendly orange label. La Gioiosa simply translates to Joyful, a perfect description for the wines it produces.
