2023 Parovel Visavi Prosecco Trieste
2023 Parovel Visavi Prosecco Trieste
The wine is clear and fresh with fine apple notes, some yeast aroma and the scent of lemon zest. It is lively on the palate, with fine acidity, great freshness and a subtle bitter note.

Prosecco is on everyone's lips. Over the last 15 years, the wines from the then newly created DOC have become an international success. At that time, there was a significant change: the most important grape variety for the production of the wine was renamed Glera, while the region was henceforth called Prosecco DOC. The name Prosecco goes back to a small suburb of Trieste. Wine has long been produced there on small terraces overlooking the Adriatic Sea and it was there that I got to know one of the region's greatest characters.
Euro Parovel stumbled into the courtyard of his winery slightly late. This was no big deal, as I was well supplied with local snacks and sat on the terrace in the sun. He didn't try to woo me with a memorized sales pitch and had few words but a big grin for me. Instead, he poured out his wine and let me taste it. His Prosecco Visavi stood out from the dozens of Proseccos I had tasted in the days before. Precise, fresh, but still a little edgier and wilder. Quite the character … just like the winemaker.
