RUGGERI Prosecco Santo Stefano DOC (VSQPRD), Ruggeri NV Grape Varieties 100% Prosecco Food Matching Note: Drinks very well with a luxuriant dish of delicate fresh-water shell fish, any light lunch or canapes and is a deliciously refreshing glass by itself. Tasting Note: This is a classic prosecco with fine bubbles and a fragrant nose of freshly baked bread and ripe fruit. On the palate it is full with a pleasant vein of acidity and a very slightly semi-sweet background which balances the flavours and adds length. Grape: Made using the Prosecco grape variety, which gives the name to the wine. Location: From a single vineyard in the Valdobbiadene hills in the Veneto region of North East Italy. Flavour: Lighter than most sparkling wines, with crisp and refreshing pear flavours. USP: The perfect lighter alternative to Champagne. Combined: From the, light, crisp and refreshing Prosecco grape variety, which gives the name to the wine. Hand-harvested from a single vineyard called Santo Stefano. Vinification Note: White vinification, that is to say without the skins, at a controlled temperature of 20 degrees C. The sparkle is added through slow refermentation in large sealed tanks at 12-14 degrees C, remaining with the yeasts for approximately three months before bottling.
