Perlo Extra Brut – Valdobbiadene DOCG – Prosecco Superiore

This Prosecco Extra Brut is crystal clear, straw yellow in color, the perlage in the glass is fine and persistent. It releases fruity notes of apple, pear and white peach combined with floral scents of orange blossom and jasmine framed by light mineral sensations. On the palate it is dry with a pleasant freshness that recalls drinking, the perlage is reconfirmed as fine and delicate. The wine is balanced with a nice final persistence. Given its freshness and minerality, it lends itself to being paired with classic seafood, fatty fish and white meats
