2020 Adami - Prosecco Sul Lievito

2020 Adami Prosecco Sul Lievito

The 2020 Adami Prosecco Sul Lievito is a sparkling wine that elevates the classic Prosecco experience with the added depth of lees aging. Presented in a 750ml bottle, this expression balances bright fruit-forward freshness with a creamy, inviting mouthfeel that lingers pleasantly on the palate.

Tasting notes

• Appearance: pale straw with a fine, persistent mousse.
• Aroma: fresh pear and green apple lead, complemented by white peach, lemon zest, and a subtle touch of brioche from lees contact.
• Palate: crisp acidity supports flavors of citrus, pear, and almond; the lees aging imparts a creamy texture and a softly toasty nuance without overpowering the fruit.
• Finish: clean and extended, with a delicate mineral character that encourages another glass.

Why this wine stands out

By aging on the lees, this Prosecco gains depth and complexity that set it apart from lighter, fruit-driven styles. The result is a wine that remains exceptionally refreshing while offering a richer mouthfeel and a more pronounced bakery-brioche note on the nose and palate.

Food pairings

• Seafood dishes such as precise, citrus-kissed sashimi, shrimp crudo, or lightly grilled scallops
• Shellfish, including oysters and mussels
• Bright risottos (lemon or saffron) and light pasta with seafood
• Soft cheeses (burrata, fresh goat cheese) and delicate antipasti
• Fried appetizers (calamari, lightly battered vegetables) that benefit from a refreshing counterpoint

Serving suggestions: chill to about 6–8°C (43–46°F) and enjoy within a couple of years of vintage for optimal freshness and balance.
