About this deal

Dry - funnily enough, it's the least dry variety here! It can contain up to 32 grams of sugar residue per litre. This type of Prosecco is very peachy and mellow, but also much harder to find. It has less calories: For those dieters among us, who deprive yourselves and reserve alcohol for ‘cheat days’, you can hold your hands up and rejoice. A flute of Prosecco contains just 80 calories or around 60 calories less than a glass of wine. See, all things enjoyed in moderation! It’s perfect with canapés, and is very food friendly – it may struggle a little with Asian influenced canapés, but works with most. A The manufacturing method used by our wine making team to produce our award winning Prosecco is most often referred to as the “Charmat Method” named after Frenchman Eugène Charmat, a pioneer in the use of glazed stainless steel tanks to facilitate the secondary fermentation stage.

A If you’ve been looking online for Prosecco, you can’t fail to notice the enormous number of different brands out there. But how many of those are award winners? The answer is "precious few". Prestigious awards are very difficult to come by. Our Prosecco has won no less than 12 awards at high profile competitions such as the International Wine Challenge (IWC), the International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC) and the Decanter World Wine Awards over the last few years which is testament to the amount of sheer hard work put into refining our product by our wine production team. All those awards and still keenly priced too. The Price: There’s no denying we like to get a bargain, however, we don’t like to sacrifice on quality. The lower price point of Prosecco makes it accessible to everyone. It’s an easy solution when you wat to celebrate with friends and family but you don’t want to spend a fortune on Champagne. It protects against Diabetes: A study in Denmark surveyed over 70,000 people and found that seven or more glasses of wine per week lowered the risk of diabetes by 25 to 30 per cent (don't worry, that includes the one with sparkles too). It appeals to the younger market: The lower price tag and light flavour make Prosecco an ideal choice for those who are new to sparkling wine and the younger generation who would have previously relied on cheap spirits. It’s also very easy to find in bars and restaurants.

Mini Prosecco bottles aren't really a break through in the world of sparkling wine, but there are certainly a few things about our mini Prosecco bottles that set them ahead of our competitors. Our Prosecco is a multi award winner and these awards have been presented at some of the most prestigious competitions in the wine industry. These awards have come from the International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC), the International Wine Challenge (IWC) and the Decanter World Wine Awards. The award recipients are decided following blind wine tastings by some of the wine industry’s most respected and experienced professional sommeliers. These highly regarded judges have deemed our Prosecco to be amongst the very best in a very competitive market and to receive accreditation at such a high level is a major achievement of which we are very proud. It’s a very encouraging result after all those hundreds of hours of research and production work carried out by our team. However, Prosecco, the grape, was also being grown in other countries, such as Australia and Brazil, so this, in combination with the increase in sales and international success, resulted in new laws and regulations regarding production. A new area, called ‘Prosecco’ was created, and vineyard area increased by 25%. The original designated area was made a DOCG, and that is where the top quality Prosecco now comes from. The broader, wider DOC area is flatter, and the yields are higher, with many new plantings. This means that only wines grown in these areas are allowed to be labelled Prosecco. Prosecco is a light, fresh, fragrant sparkling wine, generally dry in style. It is generally slightly lower in alcohol than many sparkling wines, averaging about 11%.

A Let’s be clear here, Prosecco is most certainly not a “cheap alternative” to Champagne. It’s an entirely different wine which is not as costly to produce as Champagne. It’s as simple as that. A Absolutely! We deliver Prosecco all over the UK to wedding venues, corporate events and social gatherings of all kinds. Just call and speak to a member of our sales team to find out how we can help make your event even more special.

Great Nana Untried Have only tried one as yet,some are for gifts and the rest for Christmas so cant really give a review. Prosecco is made by the Charmat method, which means the secondary fermentation, which produces the bubbles is done in a sealed tank, before bottling, rather than in the bottle itself, which is the traditional champagne method. Apart from a different style, with lighter, slightly larger bubbles, it is also a much cheaper way of producing sparkling wine.

null Amazing Prosecco for the money Great taste and superb value for the price. Fast and very safe delivery Sparkling wine and Champagne drinking trends have changed dramatically in the last 10 years; these wines have become more accessible, and keen pricing has meant that they have become more affordable, and therefore more ‘everyday drinking’ than they used to be. Until a few years ago, Champagne sales were buoyant, and one of the most rapidly growing sectors of the drinks industry. The lower alcohol level is one of the factors in its recent rise to fame, as wine drinkers look for slightly lighter, yet still flavoursome styles.The very best Proseccos come from the DOCG areas of Conegliano-Valdobiaddene, and Colli Ascolani and it’s worth looking out for these names on the label and paying just that little bit extra for a whole lot more quality. Around 60% of all Prosecco comes from these DOCG areas. Alessa Good Quality and Delicious Prosecco This is very good quality Prosecco. It is delicious and tastes like honey. I would definitely buy this again. Frizzante - has less bubbles and they don't last for long after serving due to the short second fermentation process. It's still very popular, making up around 39% of all production.

If you are shopping for Prosecco regularly you’ll have probably noticed 'Spumante', 'Frizzante' or 'Extra Brut' terms next to the brand's name. Knowing the true meaning of these can help you choose the best bottle to suit your taste preferences. Originally the area also produced still wines, but now the entire production is focussed on Prosecco, and there are over 185 wineries in the region. There are 3 styles of Prosecco, although the original still wine is now hardly ever seen. The other 2 are Prosecco Frizzante and Prosecco Spumante – the difference between the 2 is purely down to the amount of sparkle and fizz in the glass – Frizzante has a lighter, more gentle bubble, but the difference is minimal – Frizzante has 2.5 bars of pressure in the bottle, Spumante has 3. Sparkling Rose from this region is generally dry, and pale in colour, with a delicate strawberry and rosehip character. What Does Prosecco Go With?A Premier Estates Prosecco is made in North Eastern Italy, specifically in the town of Vazzola which is in the heart of the Veneto region. This particularly beautiful part of Italy has many amazing vineyards which are famous for producing truly wonderful grapes. The varying terrain means that the grapes have quite different characteristics depending upon the geographical height at which they were grown. Historically, the region has always had a strong tradition of producing sparkling wines – it’s in the north of Italy, they don’t get as much heat as many regions, and the climate and soil is well suited to these grapes and this style of wine making.
