About this sparkling wine
Vaporetto is a renowned producer of Prosecco, a sparkling wine that originates from the Veneto region of Italy. The history of Prosecco dates back to the Roman era, where it was known as Puccino. However, it was not until the 19th century that Prosecco gained popularity as a wine.
Vaporetto produces its Prosecco using the Charmat method, which involves fermenting the wine in large stainless steel tanks. This method is preferred for Prosecco as it preserves the wine's fruity and floral aromas. Vaporetto's Prosecco is made from the Glera grape, which is the primary grape variety used in Prosecco production.
Vaporetto's Prosecco is known for its light and refreshing taste, with notes of green apple, pear, and citrus. It has a delicate effervescence and a crisp finish, making it an ideal aperitif or accompaniment to light meals.
Aside from its classic Prosecco, Vaporetto also produces a range of Prosecco-based cocktails, including the popular Aperol Spritz. These cocktails are made using Vaporetto's Prosecco and other high-quality ingredients, resulting in a refreshing and flavourful drink.
Overall, Vaporetto is a top producer of Prosecco, known for its high-quality wines and innovative cocktails. Its use of the Charmat method and the Glera grape results in a Prosecco that is light, refreshing, and perfect for any occasion.
