Always serve La Marca Prosecco chilled between 46-50°F. A versatile Italian Sparkling wine, La Marca Prosecco can be served in sparkling flutes or white wine glasses. A full bottle serves approximately 5-7 glasses. After pouring the first round, seal the opened bottle with a bottle stopper to keep remaining wine fresh and effervescent and keep the wine chilled to 46-50°F. An opened bottle should last about 3-4 hours with the bottle closure.
La Marca Prosecco has the charm to stand alone as an aperitif, but it also has the body and the acidity to pair well with a range of foods, from seafood and mild cheeses to rich pasta dishes and decadent desserts.
Wine Folly: pg 155 Prosecco - I definitely got the acidity that's listed in the book. I don't think we got cream, but we did get honeydew and pear. Only a little bit of apple and the lager & pear seemed to be the strongest overall.
My Review: When I first tried it, I didn't like it very much, but then I realized that it was because all I had been drinking lately was Sangria and other fruitier drinks. Over time, it became pleasant and enjoyable. It was definitely floral, and very crisp. Also, it was light-bodied. This was the first sparkling wine that I tried.
