"Aromas of yellow apple and a yeasty whiff of bread crust lead the nose on this lightly sparkling, bottle-fermented wine. The aromas carry over to the crisp straightforward palate along with lime, a hint of almond and racy acidity."

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Drusian Col Fondo Prosecco di Treviso Frizzante" from the vintage 2013 on 01.01.2014 with 87 of 100 points.
"This undergoes a second fermentation in bottle that leaves a slight sediment at the bottom. Aromas recall delicate white flower, green apple, citrus and bread crust. The vibrant palate offers ripe Bartlett pear, nectarine and candied ginger accompanied by a creamy perlage. It's balanced with lively acidity."
