 4/2009 MACHIO DEI CAVALIERI PROSECCO DI VALDOBBIADENE
Try saying this wine's name five times quickly. Oy, vey!
We reviewed this wine back in summer of 2007. We liked it then, and we like it now.
This bubbly retails for about $20, and we quite liked it. Lots of tiny, tight bubbles, very creamy in the mouth, and it showed biscuit and cantaloupe notes. Very pleasant and uplifting, just as a Prosecco should be. Serve it about 45 degrees Fahrenheit. (Rating ****)
