Luca Paretti
Italy
A brunch-ready sparkling wine with bright, fruity flavor
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Luca Paretti
Brut Prosecco
Produced by a family-run winery in the scenic rolling hills of Treviso, a small city slightly north of Venice, this Prosecco is an authentic expression of Italy’s most famous sparkling wine. The stunning vineyards at the foothills of the Italian Alps produce pure and fresh fruit that are perfect for making sparkling wine. The local glera grape variety (formerly just known as Prosecco) is an ancient cultivar, renowned in Northeastern Italy since Roman times. Unlike France’s Champagne, Prosecco is produced by inducing a secondary fermentation to the base wine in tank rather than in bottle, a process invented in Italy and commonly known as the Charmat Method. This yields a wine with a softer bead, better suited for the less austere style of Prosecco. Supple and charming, it's no wonder these wines have become the favorites not only in the trattorias of Venice, but of bars and restaurants ...

WINE REGION:
Italy
While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
