The heat is starting to make itself felt and we can finally enjoy the evening hours at sunset in extraordinary places, by the sea or in the mountains… probably still in our beautiful cities and the small villages and towns of our peninsula.
It’s time for aperitifs, for moments in company, for a desire for holidays and a bit of leisure, at least mental.
For all these moments, the wine that has now taken the lead is definitely sparkling wine. White, rosé, and red sparkling wines… yes, even the latter. And then the skill of excellent bartenders who know how to enhance wines and sometimes provocatively pair them with natural aromas, fruits, and very fresh vegetables.
In short, Italy and its Aperitif are a mix of typicality that is conquering the world. Just think that even in countries like South Korea, there are those who are trying, riding the wave of Made in Italy and its trendy power, to bring the idea of an aperitif. However, the Koreans do not understand why it should be done standing, so they do it seated instead…
Prosecco and Champagne are still the main sparkling wines chosen worldwide, and the former has now surpassed the consumption of the latter. But the sparkling wines are manifold and it’s a world in continuous expansion with elements of experimentation, especially in areas where just a few years ago they were considered only a chimera.
For example, the sparkling wines from Puglia’s Tria area, or the Sicilian and Etnean sparkling wines that are winning over the world’s critics. Then there are indigenous and rare sparkling wines like the
Lessini Durello Veneto.
In short, a selection so vast that it is probably difficult to know completely.
Spaghetti & Mandolino offers you the opportunity to choose between two great Proseccos,
Bosco di Gica by Adami, a renowned must-have in the lands of Valdobbiadene, and an absolute novelty that is receiving significant confirmation from Italian and international critics. Faotto Bottignolo, from the ancient vineyards of Santo Stefano di Valdobbiadene, on the Cartizze hill, produces very elegant and refined
Prosecco. A sparkling wine that will surprise you with its pleasantness.
But what to say about a thrilling Classic Method produced with indigenous and unknown grapes like the Durella grape grown on the Calvarina volcano in Roncà? Try the
Durello by Fattori. Anarchic elegance fused in an unexpected and very intriguing mix! Finally, the delightful
rosé Chiaretto from the Benazzoli sisters of Bardolino, which has once again won over the jury of the International Rose Competition in Provence.
