Tenuta Sant’Anna Prosecco Brut NV 750ml

Straw-yellow color with pale green glints. Exuberant foam characterized by minuscule bubbles. Fresh bouquet initially of acacia flowers which gives way to aromas redolent of white peach and rennet. In the mouth it is surprisingly cool and vigorous, lively with a creamy perlage of fruity notes that titillate the palate exquisitely

Champagne Blend

The sparkling wines of Champagne have been revered by wine drinkers for hundreds of years, and even today they maintain their reputation for excellence of flavor and character, and are consistently associated with quality, decadence, and a cause for celebration. Their unique characteristics are partly due to the careful blending of a small number of selected grape varietals, most commonly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. These grapes, blended in fairly equal quantities, give the wines of Champagne their wonderful flavors and aromas, with the Pinot Noir offering length and backbone, and the Chardonnay varietal giving its acidity and dry, biscuity nature. It isn’t unusual to sometimes see Champagne labeled as ‘blanc de blanc’, meaning it is made using only Chardonnay varietal grapes, or ‘blanc de noir’, which is made solely with Pinot Noir.
