$60, 11.5% alcohol, cork, Italy.
This is light and this is lovely. This isn’t a word used in association with prosecco all that often but: it’s delicate. It’s a white flower petal sitting on white grapes sitting on a river stone. It glides through the mouth and then presses, ever so gently, on through the finish. Class is the other word that comes to mind. 92 points.

When you pick up a wine book or a wine website and see thousands of wines with 95 point and above scores, it’s hard to know which of these wines to choose. Mattinson guides you through this maze, leading you to the best wine stories, the best wine producers, the best value wines, the most prestigious wines and simply, to the best tasting wines.
Mattinson has been a photo-journalist since 1987 and a wine critic since 2000. He is the only Australian wine journalist to have won the Australian Wine Communicator of the Year Award more than once.
