Mionetto

A well known producer of Prosecco, the Mionetto brand I believe was one of the first in this market. Prosecco is a grape grown in the Northeastern area of Italy and became famous when mixed with peach nectar to make Bellini's.

Brut Prosecco NV ( almost all Prosecco will be Non vintage) dry side, nice stone fruits on the palate and good finish..not the burnt aspirin that I sometimes get from the grape.

Moscato Dolce Mionetto.. pretty muscat nose, soft texture, sweet lush palate...nice acidity to carry through to the end.
