Kylie Minogue Prosecco Rosé
Kylie Minogue's Prosecco Rosé is another hit from her extensive wine collection. This elegant sparkling rosé, produced by Zonin in Veneto's scenic Gambellara hills, boasts crisp and fresh notes of strawberries, raspberries, and blossom. The combination of Glera and Pinot Noir grapes does deliver a fair whack of residual sugar, but there’s definitely balance. With a pretty pale rose hue, it’s perfect for summer parties. The bottle’s baeautiful heart design adds a charming touch too.

Villa Degli Olmi Corte dei Rovi Prosecco N.V.
What a wine this is. With an incredible performance in competitions and a Vivino Best Pick stamp, this wine serially outperforms much more expensive rivals. The straw yellow pour from this 4th generation family winery reveals fragrant jasmine and vibrant citrus with apple. In the mouth, this floral-fruity blend continues with a gentle, creamy mousse. A subtle mineral touch brings some dryness towards the well-balanced finish and the flavour exploration you get for the money will leave you open mouthed. Delicious, and great alongside a variety of dishes too.
