Tasting - Verdi Spumante

Name: Verdi Spumante
Variety: Spumante - Champagne/ Sparkling
Region: Piedmont, Italy
Country: Italy
Year: NV
Price: $8

Winery Review:
Deliciously sparkling and zesty, it has a soft and fruity flavor. Serve chilled to fully enjoy its balanced, clean, delightful taste. Verdi Spumante is a perfect crowd pleaser for every occasion. Its elegant taste appeals to all…and its re-sealable cork closure preserves the sparkle until you’re ready for the next glass. This malt beverage with natural flavors is the new fun drink alternative and the fastest growing sparkling Italian Spumante in the U.S.!

My Review: This wine was not one of the best ones that I have had. I thought that it was a very boring sparkling wine and did not have much going for it. It was overly sweet and did not really have that much "sparkle" to it compared to other sparkling wines. I did not drink this wine with any food so that may have been a huge factor in not liking it, but I think that it tasted like straight sugar water. Possibly mixing it with orange juice or lemonade would be better.

I did not taste this wine with food.
