Non-vintage sparkling wine, commonly referred to as NV or "Méthode Traditionnelle," is an amalgamation of wines from various years, skillfully blended to achieve a consistent and harmonious flavor profile. Produced using the traditional method, this sparkling wine undergoes a secondary fermentation in the bottle, contributing to its effervescence and complexity. By intentionally avoiding a specific vintage designation, winemakers have the flexibility to maintain a reliable and recognizable style, allowing consumers to enjoy a reliable and delicious sparkling experience year after year.

Prosecco is Italy’s most popular sparkling wine, celebrated for its light, fresh, and easy-drinking style. Made primarily from the Glera grape and produced mainly in the Veneto and Friuli regions, Prosecco is typically crafted using the Charmat (tank) method, which preserves bright fruit flavors rather than yeasty notes. The wines are known for aromas of green apple, pear, white peach, citrus, and delicate floral tones, with a soft, frothy mousse and refreshing acidity. Styles range from bone-dry Brut to slightly sweeter Extra Dry, and the finest expressions come from the hillside vineyards of Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG, prized for their elegance and balance. 🥂
