Reviews and Ratings

Andrew Bernardo rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This is a super fun product, with smoke, melon, lemon, yellow flowers, unripe stone fruit and lime zest. Very approachable. I'd buy this by the case. 90 Points.
Colin McKone - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Sparkling and very pale straw in colour with aromas of honeydew, lemon, peach and white flowers. It is light bodied and sparkling with well balanced acidity. On the palate you get flavours of peach, melon and white citrus. This will work well as an aperitif or paired with seafood. Tasted on September 16, 2018.
Lynn van der Linde - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Toasted pear and brioche aromas continue on to citrus flavours. Delicate and persistent bubbles - a real value Prosecco from Treviso, Italy.
Perfect paired with goat cheese pizza.

Sharon Lécuyer rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Beautiful bottle that is sure to be a conversation piece. Aromas of stone fruit and apple with delightful flavours of apple, peach and pear on the palette. Do you like sparkling wine but not bone dry ones? Don't let the 'brut' scare you off here. This wine has some fruitness that makes it really enjoyable and would be great at your next brunch!

Melanie Lloyd - Certified Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

On the nose, this Prosecco has canteloupe aromas with floral notes, and almond. On the palate, it is a light bodied with peach, canteloupe, and lemon flavours. It is zippy and fresh. It would work great on its own or paired with a light summer salad.

Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Medium vibrant bubbles that tickle the nose as well as the senses. Fruit forward with poached pears, apples, lightly toasted bread and tropical touches. Flavours echo this with peaches and crispy minerals at the back. A dry finish. Incredibly pretty, fresh, light and elegant - just like its brand ambassador Christy Brinkley. A model Prosecco! Pair with an afternoon get together of fellow uptown girls. 89 points. - Team tasting September 16th, 2018.
Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

This wine is endorsed by Christie Brinkley so it must be good for your skin. Aromas of peach, pear, lemon and some floral notes. Nice persistent bubble, and balanced notes of lemon, apple and some mineral notes on the palate. Enjoy with seafood.
