Prosecco - A Lively Sparkling Option for New Year's Eve

"Prosecco", Italy's famed sparkling wine, and the name of the white grape that is used to produce the bubbly itself. It hails from the Veneto region, in the northeast of the Italian boot and it's typically a fantastic value wine find - as versatile as it is economical. The dominate Prosecco producing towns are Valdobbiadene and Conegliano - buyer tip: look for these towns on the bottle label. Give up $10 and you will likely grab a Prosecco that offers delicate fruit and enticing aromatics, lots of bubbles (spumante) or lightly-bubbled (frizzante) and usually lies on the dry to off-dry side of the style spectrum. Looking to shake things up for New Year's Eve? Give your guests a flute of Prosecco.
