Notes on the Wine
The color is of antique rosé, with fine and persistent perlage. Intense with light yeasty notes on the nose, along with hints of violets and roses. Fresh and full taste with strawberry and raspberry notes. Ideal as an aperitif. Also pairs nicely with light starters, risottos, salads, seafood and white meats. Delicious with fruit and cream based desserts. Serve chilled.
Notes on the Producer
The wines produced by Cantine Maschio come from grapes grown on the hills of Valdobbiadene and Conegliano and in the Piave Valley. Which are the most prestigious areas in the appellation and really speaks on the heart of traditional Prosecco.
Maschio focuses on high-end quality production. The grapes go through a gentle pressing process. Only the must from the first pressing, the “mosto fiore” or free-run juice, is used. This can be compared to the production of extra-virgin olive oil.
The history of Cantine Maschio is also the history of Prosecco, a wine which, with its fresh, light and lively style, has created a new type of drinking geared towards conviviality, the aperitif and the cocktail known as a “spritz. For years Italians have been proud to Say Cheers with Maschio!
