Producer

The Wine People

We have worked with Stefan Girelli for over 25 years, a relationship that has yielded many exceptional wines, from everyday drinking to fine Chianti estate wines. In 2009 Stefano established a new business called ‘The Wine People’ in partnership with Frenchman, Philippe Marx, and Dutchman Peter Kosten. They have combined their skill and experience to bring affordable good value wines from across Italy, with the help of renowned Italian winemaker Stefano Chioccioli who makes all the wines. (Please look separately for the superb Chiantis from Chioccioli.)

Tasting Notes

The nose gives aromas of pear, white flowers and lemon zest. The palate is clean and crisp with apple notes, leading to a light and refreshing finish.

Food Matches

The perfect accompaniment for smoked salmon bellinis with crème fraiche.

Vinification

Like all good Proseccos, this wine is made from 100% Glera, the local grape to this region of Veneto. The grapes are picked in the cool of the morning to avoid any oxidation or skin discolouration, and the grapes pressed lightly to release the best and most flavoursome juice. Fermented in a series of tanks, using the Charmat (closed Tank) method, the wine is inocculated with selected yeasts, fermented and clarified under pressure in tank, and the wine bottled young to preserve the natural grapey fruit and delicious acidity and forward fruit notes that this style of wine is famous for.
