Light and fruity. Prosecco just isn’t really for me.

Bit sweet but surprisingly nice. The bottle is well bling.

Psssst.. Valentine’s Day is less than a week away - Wednesday 14th of Feb. You either love it or hate it, but either way it’s a great reason to pop a bottle if you ask me! When I received this sample, it stood out to me for two reasons:
1. Its unique and rather gorgeous bottle
2. It’s made by Freixenet which are a cava producer is Spain (you’ve probably seen the black bottle for $10 at some point) and this is an Italian Prosecco
Needless to say, the bottle didn’t last longer unopened. RRP $25 from Dan Murphy’s or BWS.
On the eye it’s full of plentiful tiny bubbles and it has a real greeny tinge to the colour. The nose is fresh and fruity with crisp pears and lemon zest. There’s also a touch of florals in there to amp up the pretty factor. In the mouth it’s smooth and easy drinking. Its fruitiness makes it highly approachable and food-friendly.
Grab a bottle of this, some snacks and you have a very tasty V-Day planned!
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #sample #tcweekdaywine #tctastingnotes

Let's be honest --the wine was decent, but the bottle steals the show! We could not get over the texture and how the wine captured the light. So very pretty.

Objectively, this isn't a particularly good prosecco. Very much a case of style over substance... Not much at all by way of fizz, flavours are reasonable, but unremarkable.
