Expert Reviews

There’s a tiny component here of Pinot Nero that adds fresh floral and fruity highlights to the creamy consistency of this mostly Chardonnay-based sparkler. Aromas include acacia, peach and smooth yeast. It’s a low-key, but friendly bubbly wine.

Made from Chardonnay with 5% Pinot Nero, this festive sparkler delivers Golden Delicious apple, roasted nut, water chestnut, banana and a slight note of green grass. Clearly etched and polished in the mouth, with a slightly hefty body. Imported by Selected Estates of Europe Ltd. Note: Not sure if this is the same Berlucchi as Fratelli Berlucchi or Guido Berlucchi. Must check with importer.
