Adami Bosco di Gica Brut Prosecco 2023

The NV Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Bosco di Gica punches well above its price point, boasting an intensely smoky and mineral expression on the nose that pulls you close to the glass. Beneath, I'm finding notes of pear and sweet herbal tones. It's soothing and creamy yet balanced by brisk acids, as ripe orchard fruits satiate the senses, leaving a salty twang that resonates through the finale. Wow. This is a pleasure to taste. This was bottled in September of 2020.

A classic wine from one of the region's top producers, the Adami NV Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Bosco di Gica Brut is steely and tonic with pummelo, white grapefruit and unripe pear. There are crisp mineral tones of crushed rock and sandstone. This is your quintessential Brut-styled Prosecco Superiore. The wine represents a blend of fruit from 34 different lots, and an ample 330,000 bottles were made.

Made predominantly with Glera and just a dollop of Chardonnay, this has aromas of white spring flowers and tropical fruit. The vibrant palate shows ripe yellow apple skin, bitter almond and a hint of honeydew alongside a lively perlage.

This light-bodied and easy-drinking Prosecco displays hints of black licorice, yellow pear and apple, as well as a hint of nut. Moderate finish. Drink now. 1,505 cases made.
