Terra Batista Spumante Prosecco NV

Fresh and fruity with lively bubbles and a persistent finish

As the world’s thirst for Prosecco rages on, we’re always on the lookout for great tasting, family made examples. A good friend put us in touch with the Tombacco family, founded a century ago by the current owner, Cristian's, grandfather, Battista Tombacco. It's crafted from the family’s estate grown Glera grapes, gently pressed prior to a long, slow, low temperature fermentation. Cristian then left the wine on its lees for 20 days for extra layers of creamy complexity to balance the bright citrus notes, before adding the sparkle and bottling. Wonderful hints of ripe apple, pear and rose petals lead to refreshing orchard fruit, lemon and tropical notes with tongue tingling bubbles. Serve well chilled as a delightful aperitif any time.
