Prosecco sur lie Gatti
Prosecco sur lie, Gatti Lorenzo
It is a simple enough label: Prosecco sur lie without geographical designation, from Gatti Lorenzo with a pair of black cats on the label. The wine is pure Prosecco - con amore. The second fermentation occurs naturally in bottle and there is no dosage, filtration or fining. The wine itself, bottled under crown cap, has delicate bubbles and a pale straw colour. There is a lovely creaminess from the lees-contact and other flavours of apples, almond biscotti and apricots. The finish is both precise and mellow. As with our two ancestral-style Proseccos the wine is cloudy; it feels – and tastes – like a true artisan product. It is simply, and therefore, profoundly, drinkable.
