Prosecco Vino Spumante – Fabiano, Veneto, Italy

This has a straw colour and small bubbles. The aroma is of lemon and green apples with a touch of spring flowers. Refreshingly dry, ideal for the summer!

The original main ingredient used in the famous ‘Belllini’ cocktail, that has now become hugely fashionable in it’s own right as a refreshing alternative to Champagne.

Prosecco is Italy’s answer to a refreshing, well made sparkling wine at a reasonable price. Made primarily in the Veneto region, Prosecco has become one of the most successful sparkling wine types made today.

Spumante is made from 100% Prosecco grapes, which are prized for their delicately fresh peach and cirus flavours brought alive by the small bubbles.

Four generations have evolved the Fabiano family business from a single wine store in Venice opened by Nicola Fabiano’s grandfather, Francesco, in 1912, into one of the Veneto’s most successful wineries.

Since taking the helm, Nicola has become a leader for progress within the Italian wine industry, and an ambassador for the industry internationally. He is a founding member of the world’s largest wine show, VinItaly, held in Verona, only miles from his home. He has participated annually for each of its 36 years. He is one of Italy’s strongest advocates of progress with respect to the quality of Italian wine, yet he is passionate about maintaining tradition.
