Details
Everybody will adore this bright and friendly 'aperitivo' time Prosecco! Boasting loads of yummy stone fruits and an inherently balanced yet super frisky and fresh palate. Dry and loaded with happy, almost 'cider like' bubbles and a textural complexity that steps it up a notch for Prosecco time. Let's go.
Venturing to Victoria's stunning Alpine Valley region, you'll find Billy Button Wines - and in more than one location (!) Both in the mountainous foothills of Bright and in the nearby quaint village of Myrtleford, where the winery is. While only a relatively 'new' brand (est. 2014) the owners, Jo Marsh and Glenn James are wine industry legends and visionaries who pursued their dream in Billy Button, tending to an incredibly diverse range of grape varieties not even the wine team at GPD are familiar with! From Schioppettino to Refosco, Manseng to Verduzzo, it's a wonderland of discovery - and 'Billy Button' is truly unstoppable. If you've a keen eye for flowers, you'll notice the botanical illustration on the label, are 'Billy Buttons' - bouncy yellow balls of goodness that colour the mountain tops of the gorgeous Alpine Valleys. These flowers (Craspedia to be correct) are a native daisy and create a sea of yellow during the warmer months, blanketing the mountains of their stunning wine growing region.
