Alleanze Prosecco Brut DOC 2024
$30, 11% alcohol, DIAM cork, Veneto/Italy.
It’s fruity and it’s subtle at once. Its sweetness is gentle and well managed, its apple and pear flavours are served with an elegant flourish, and its musk and floral notes add texture but don’t get in the way of the general flow. The quality of this prosecco is comfortably above the norm. 91 points.
