Prosecco NV – Black Market Deal #36264

King Valley's cool climate and elevated vineyards create perfect conditions for Prosecco grapes, allowing them to retain natural acidity while developing the fresh citrus and tropical fruit flavours found in this wine. The region's Italian heritage, established by migrant families in the 1950s, brings authentic winemaking traditions to Australian terroir. This combination produces Proseccos with the crisp, fine style that has earned King Valley recognition as one of Australia's premier sparkling wine regions.

Non-vintage Proseccos are crafted by blending wines from multiple years to achieve consistent house style and optimal flavour balance. This approach allows winemakers to maintain the signature fresh citrus, apple and pear characteristics year after year, regardless of seasonal variations. The NV method also enables earlier release to market, ensuring the wine reaches you at peak freshness with those vibrant tropical notes and creamy bubbles intact.

The wine's zesty lime and pear flavours make it exceptional with fresh seafood like oysters, prawns or sashimi, where the bubbles cleanse the palate between bites. Its crisp acidity and tropical fruit notes also complement spicy Asian cuisine beautifully - think Thai green curry or Vietnamese spring rolls. The medium body provides enough structure to handle richer dishes like creamy pasta or soft cheeses, while the uplifting finish keeps your palate refreshed.

Serve well-chilled at 6-8°C to showcase the fresh citrus and tropical fruit aromatics while maintaining those creamy bubbles. Store bottles on their side in a cool, dark place away from temperature fluctuations to preserve the wine's vibrant character. Once opened, use a proper sparkling wine stopper and consume within 2-3 days to maintain effervescence and those bright gooseberry and lime flavours that make this wine so captivating.

The 'Best Sparkling Wine of Show' at King Valley Shed Show demonstrates this Prosecco's superiority among regional peers, while the 4-star Winestate Magazine rating confirms consistent quality from a respected wine publication. Being named 'Best of Victoria' by Winestate Magazine in 2012 indicates this producer has a track record of excellence across the state's competitive sparkling wine landscape. These accolades suggest you're getting award-winning quality at Black Market pricing.
