Martini & Rossi Prosecco is a refreshingly dry, slightly sparkling wine made from the Prosecco grape, grown exclusively in Italy’s fruitful Veneto region. The Italians call it “frizzante” or “light bubbles” because of its softer effervescence and acidity. This wine pairs well with salty sharp cheeses and main courses such as lightly sauced chicken, pasta or fish.
