No oak influence. Not a complex wine, but pleasing medium bodied mouth watering cherry and lots of pepper. Enjoyed this. — 7 years ago

What to say other than this was so good? A touch of sweetness balanced the otherwise seering acidity, making this satisfyingly refreshing, and it was so flavorful. A personal favorite prosecco of late. — 11 years ago
The 2018 Vespa Bianco is a blend of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc grapes, grown in the hills of Premariacco and Cividale. The wine is fermented in half stainless steel tanks and half oak casks. Aging in the bottle lasts a year before release. A good portion of the lees - the spent yeast cells - are left in the wine, which enhances the mouthfeel.
This beautiful wine carries a golden hue in the glass and has a nose which features salinity as well as fruit. The aromas range from pears to guava to beeswax to lanolin. On the palate, there is bountiful salinity and minerality to meet the tropical fruit flavors. Acidity is fresh and zingy, too, so food pairing is simple.

ahhhh, after a recent subpar Schiopettino, i had to go out and find another one: this was fantastic - textbook dark fruit and peppery goodness, some fig compote, licorice, vanillin along with earthy elements, just tons of complexity, well made balanced w/impressive length on finish — a year ago
