Bellino Prosecco | Veneto, Italy

£14.00

Bellino Prosecco Extra Dry DOC is a superb value, extremely versatile, sparkling wine for light meals or informal and social drinking.

It has a low comparatively low 13.5g residual sugar and undergoes 28-30 days of secondary fermentation.

The origins of Prosecco have ancient roots and date back at least as far as Roman times. The success of the wine, even in those ancient days, has given a strong boost to the development of viticulture and oenology in the whole north-east of Italy.

Prosecco is produced exclusively in the neighbouring regions of Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia in north-eastern Italy. The Prosecco region enjoys a mild microclimate with generous rainfall and sunshine. The exact soil type here varies between vineyards, but is generally a mixture of limestone, clay, marl and marine sandstone. When coupled with the temperate climate, these soil conditions make this region ideal for cultivating Prosecco’s Glera grape.
