3 Types of Prosecco with Prosecco Mionetto

Three Types of Prosecco with Prosecco Mionetto

Last Updated on October 20, 2019 by JaimeSays

This past weekend, one of my oldest friends and her family came by to check out our new digs in the suburbs. While here, she asked if we have been exploring our new town and speaking honestly, we haven’t. While we have ventured out to some favorites like The Bavarian Lodge and Mon Ami Gabi, we really don’t leave our home much. Partly because we love coming home to something larger than a one bedroom apartment apartment, and partly because we’re saving money to furnish said house. That being said, we certainly don’t feel like we are sacrificing anything. We’ve been eating like kings and drinking like them too with three different types of prosecco I was so graciously gifted by Prosecco Mionetto.

Some Basic Facts about Prosecco and Prosecco Mionetto

Prosecco is Italian sparkling wine that come from the the Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Veneto regions of Italy. Unlike champagne or wines like Crémant d’Alsace made in the Champagne method, Prosecco undergoes secondary fermentation in large format stainless steel tanks rather than in the bottle. This allows for fruitier flavors and more approachable prices.

Prosecco Mionetto and the Mionetto winery was established in 1887 in Valdobbiadene, Italy. Located in the most renowned DOCG region for all types of Prosecco, today the winery thrives due to excellent location and superior winemaking.

Consider Any of These Three Types of Prosecco from Prosecco Mionetto

Real talk: I had never had a DOCG Prosecco. Then I got my hands on this Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG from Prosecco Mionetto. DOCG stands for “Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita,” which is a sexy Italian phrase meaning these are top tier, highly regulated wine growing regions of Italy.

When is a Good Time for Prosecco?

While I tend to think it is always a good time for Prosecco, there are some classic pairings. Consider the following:

  • Choose Prosecco instead of Champagne for affordable bubbles for a party-Maybe even try 187 mL format for party favors!
  • Eating an Umami rich, Asian dish? A glass of Off-Dry Prosecco Mionetto Valdobbiadene DOCG is a great choice
  • How about a classic Italian Spritz? Check out the cocktail recipes and styling ideas from Mionetto
