Martini & Rossi Prosecco: New Look But Same Great Prosecco

I received this bottle as a sample and took these notes during a recent wine tasting:

The bottle had a unique closure for a wine - an actual bottle cap, reminiscent of a large glass bottle of soda or some other everyday beverage. The new design hopes to give the Prosecco more of an every-day feel and although I was first put off by it, I found it to be pretty cool and a great way to make drinking a sparkling wine with dinner more informal and fun. The Prosecco itself was a great appertif with a touch of fizz, grapefruit and pear flavors, and some sweet fruits on the finish. It rolls in at $12, is good bang for your buck, and was a fun way to start off the night.
