De Stefani NV Rive di Refrontolo Brut Nature (Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore)
#43 Enthusiast 100 2020
Return to List Radiant and loaded with finesse, this lovely sparkler opens with floral and fruit aromas of hawthorn, acacia and yellow pear. The bone-dry, linear palate delivers mature green apple, white peach and a savory mineral note alongside a foaming mousse. Bright acidity keeps it balanced and energized. Kerin O鈥橩eefe
