Prosecco has been a hit in the Netherlands for years and actually everywhere in Europe, except in Italy itself. That is to say: the slightly sweet prosecco as it is drunk here is less common in Veneto itself. The Italians themselves opt for the dry style and they drink it at noon with a focaccia with spinach or tuna or just as a glass in between. This Masottina Prosecco Brut is a prosecco as the Italians like to drink it. If you like brut (is dry) more than slightly sweet yourself, you could try this one. Delicious as an aperitif, for a drink and, just like the Italians, for just a glass.
