It is a Prosecco Superiore Brut who does ageing on the yeasts at the end of secondary fermentation in the bottle (Metodo Classico). My dear friend Silvano Follador firmly believes to the hig potential of secondary fermentation with disgorging instead of Charmat or "sur lie" (col fondo) method which may be sometimes too sweet or even not stable because the presence of the work-in-progress yeast. Acidity, cleanness and savoury sensations that's what Silvano's steadily looking for in his Prosecco and I must admit these are all features that I found for instance, in this Dosaggio Zero (pas dosè) 2010 vintage, who left right on my mouth a genuine feeling of citrus and loquats freshly picked from the branch and squeezed directly into the glass.

Still weighing my top wines of 2013 but here is my best of 2014. 100-point Prosecco if there ever was one. Astounding depth &richness @ absolutely zero sugar. Wow.
