Decided to try this one that has been on the shelf awhile for NYE. Quite nice with a very yeasty, flint, and smoke aroma. Nice Fizz. Yellow-green in color. The cork is a bit unusual as it is held on with a rope as opposed to a wire cage. Smooth with a slight salinity and nice finish. — 2 years ago
Perfect in my opinion! Fresh, fruity, sweet...

Shows that Prosecco can be as delicious as any sparkling wine without trying to be anything but what it is: rivetingly fresh and lively with lots of Meyer lemon and saline notes. — 7 years ago
My third go at this one. Green gold. Fine bubbles. "Delicate" (per my dining partner) apple and pluot on the nose and palate. A bit more weight than expected. Velvety acidity (lees time?). Just enough finish. No bitter aftertaste. This is the Queen of Proseccos. Drink it when you buy it of course. — 7 months ago

June 29, 2019. Dinner w/ J2, Jack D, KK. Celebrating KK’s work transition. Wine 1. Cartizze Prosecco, purchased at the vineyard. Light, fruity. Cartizze is not my fav, this one is exceptional. — 5 years ago
Happy Prosecco Week! We’re celebrating the occasion with a special bottle that is NOT the kind of Prosecco you’d use for your mimosas …
It’s the 2021 Cartizze, Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze DOCG produced by Bisol, a family-owned and -operated winery since 1542.
It comes from the prized, historic hilltop site of Cartizze (a “grand cru” level vineyard in Prosecco Superiore DOCG). This single vineyard site is treasured for its ideal growing conditions, capable of producing the highest quality fruit to make highest quality Prosecco.
Elevations stretch up to 1,000+ ft offering both cooling influences and increased sunlight interception, especially with a south-facing aspect. Fruit going into a Cartizze wine must be hand-harvested, which promotes fruit selectivity.
You may notice the label doesn’t even mention “Prosecco” … this is because the quality of the location “Superiore di Cartizze DOCG” supersedes any other naming convention in terms of indicating the wine style.
Its color is pale lemon with a delicate, creamy mousse. The nose opens with a medium intensity bouquet of lemon peel, ripe pear, apple, quince, white peach, honeysuckle, white blossom, and blanched almond. On the palate, this wine is off dry, with medium alcohol (ABV 11.5%), and medium(+) acidity, lending balance to the structure and profile. Flavors match the nose and it’s delicious, layered, and vibrant.
Cheers to the diverse world of Prosecco! — 9 months ago
