This super easy-drinking Prosecco is alive with notes of bruised apple and pear orchard fruit on the nose, combining effortlessly with attractive peachy aromas and some green fruit. A wonderful vein of saline acidity weaves itself through the palate here toward a fresh, nettly finish.

Let's face it, Veneto is a vast hotbed of stunning rolling hills and steep plantings that contribute to arguably the most successful sparkling wine style in the world: Prosecco. In the region’s capital, you will find no shortage of Prosecco bars dedicated to Italy’s favourite sparkler in a range of styles, from bone dry, to semi-sweet, and even ‘dolce’, or dessert styles. As you know, Venice is also super famous for its romantic gondola rides through its labyrinth of canals. But those canals were once famous for something else; Vaporetto take their name from the “little steamer” boats that historically used to run these canals and these guys firmly have their roots in northeast Italy, working with a number of high-quality growers, sourcing some of the purest, finest fruit around which isn’t hard to see through the lens of their quite brilliant ‘No.8’ Cuvée which it has to be said, is exemplary.
