(2016) With 10g/l of dosage as opposed to the Extra Brut's 14g/l, a difference in sweetness is barely discernable. This is again crisp and delicately floral in tone, perhaps a touch of custardy creaminess, but the fresh, lively palate has a similar elegant raciness and dry finish.

(2015) Vintage Roots have a couple of excellent Proseccos on their books, drier and rather more serious than some. This vintage wine comes from Fasoli Gino, a family-run winery in Verona who pioneered organic farming in the area 30 years ago. The mousse is modest, but the nose is more about apple and a hint of nuttiness and honey than the icing sugar froth of many cheaper Proseccos. The palate has a soft peach and passion fruit ripeness, a hint of something exotic for sure, and good, clean acidity. It still has party/aperitif credentials, but enough pleasant bitter lemon acidity to be savoury too.
