It was the day of trout, after having drawn with fatigue it gave me satisfaction to see it in the pot in the form of an appetizer along with shallots and tomatoes, just to toast the first fish caught in a lake to go without payment, we opened a MO Cartizze Prosecco Valdobbiadene DOCG Superiore di Cartizze by Mionetto.
I wanted to brush up the hobby of fishing abandoned years ago due to lack of patience , something that is missing from young people and that with time you will learn to acquire .
Cooked trout, uncorked the MO Cartizze DOCG Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze by Mionetto , start the test : it will be a good match ?
The answer later, now we talk about the characteristics of this wine , prosecco sparkling Charmat and made from Glera grapes grown in the area DOCG of Cartizze .
That’s it? Well it is already enough to understand the basic features , we see how this plays Mionetto Cartizze DOCG :
Straw yellow in accordance with the greenish hues like veins running through the glass alternating with the bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass , forming a thin and elegant perlage , which generates little foam as if to showcase the only wine.
But it is the scent that Cartizze Prosecco differs from other less noble , because in addition to the classic apple there are hints of ripe yellow fruit such as peaches or apricots and also has an odor similar to the final of the brides bouquet of flowers . ( 😉 Today I am a poet ) .
Now comes the highlight, tasting it , and here is the limit of the pairing that I dared to do .
Why indeed Cartizze DOCG wine is fresh , pleasantly sweet and low in alcohol that is revealed only in the final closing in a dry aftertaste of almonds , then drank alone was a pleasure, but approached the acidity of the tomato seemed too sweet.
Discussion for the trout , which by itself with its swampy taste sweet but it goes well with this prosecco .
Obviously the ideal pairing with the fish is to shellfish , but you can enjoy the Cartizze DOCG Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze by Mionetto with pastries or even alone … to toast to what suits you best .
