Giavi Prosecco Superiore Brut Prima Volta

This is a new Prosecco producer for me. My friend from Hong Kong found it in a deli shop near Arezzo, Italy, when he was loading up on salami for dinner on Saturday night. The dense sparkling wine had much more flavor and interest than your normal Prosecco, which can be very commercial and industrial tasting at times. I am not a great fan of Prosecco because so many taste artificial, but this sparkler from Giavi really hit the spot over the weekend and cut nicely through the salami. It was dense and layered with lemon rind and peach skin, full and delicious with a fine bead and wonderful flavors. Drink now. 90 points. Find the wine.
