About
Maschio is a leading Italian Prosecco brand, bringing premium DOC-quality Prosecco to American tables, rooftops, picnics, or wherever and however it is that you enjoy your wine. Our wine production in the historic Prosecco appellation is certified sustainable. We only use the first pressing juice (the best a grape has to offer) for our wines. Dedicated to doing one thing well, we have a Prosecco for every palate and every occasion.
Terroir
The Prosecco region is situated between the Adriatic Sea and the foothills of the Italian Alps. Sandwiched between mountains and sea, the hilly vineyards of the region enjoy a temperate climate and elevated rainfall, which favors the production of the Glera grape.
Vinification
Gentle pressing of the grapes to extract only the free-run juice from the heart of the berry. Then the juice is left to rest in stainless steel tanks for approximately 12 hours and then fermentation begins. Vinification in stainless takes about 15-20 days at 65-68 °F to develop a natural perlage.
Tasting Notes
Light-straw yellow in color. Intense aromas with light ethereal notes, along with hints off white peach and orange blossoms. Captivating, soft, and round on the mouth with nuances of peach and almond. Serve chilled at 42-56 °F.
Food Pairing
Ideal as an aperitif, it also pairs nicely with light starters, seafood, soups, salads, and light pasta dishes. Delicious with fruit and pastries.
