I've been itching to try this Prosecco for ages. On my Facebook page I get lots of Prosecco Watchers posting pictures of their tipple for the evening, and quite a few have posted this one, and said it's really tasty.
Whilst driving back from my parents last weekend, we stopped at the garage in their small town in the Midlands to do a quick petrol fill up - and low and behold, there it was, winking at me on the shelf. £9.99 later, and it was in the boot on the journey back home.
Although keen to try it, I left it overnight so it was beautifully chilled, and I saved it for Sunday roast cooking and eating.
Now I think this Prosecco retails lower in the likes of Bargain Booze at £7.99, but obviously varies.
So onto the good stuff..
I Heart Wines come across as a refreshing and straightforward company (no I was not sent freebies, or am being endorsed to say this) - check out the website for yourself and you will see what I mean (www.iheartwines.co.uk).
Basically, they select the best of a selection of wine varieties, and present them in lovely I heart branding.
The write up for the Prosecco states - "True to style bursting with classic acacia flower aromas and delicate apple and peach flavours, this is a light sparkling wine that is perfect for pre-dinner drinks and any celebration. We think you will ♥ it as much as we do!"
I have to agree. This wine increased in flavour once it had been open for half an hour or so - the fruity apple flavours really came to the fore, and the bubbles were not too much. This Prosecco is on the dry side, which I love, and it did go really well with food. We had nibbles of olives whilst cooking, and it went perfectly with roast chicken.
In all honesty, I would recommend this Prosecco (and I do tell you the ones I don't like), and I'm going to order a case from the Tesco website in the near future.
