The 100 Point Scoring System (from www.robertparker.com):
96-100: An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. Wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase and consume.
90 - 95: An outstanding wine of exceptional complexity and character. In short, these are terrific wines.
80 - 89: A barely above average to very good wine displaying various degrees of finesse and flavor as well as character with no noticeable flaws.
70 - 79: An average wine with little distinction except that it is soundly made. In essence, a straightforward, innocuous wine.
60 - 69: A below-average wine containing noticeable deficiencies, such as excessive acidity and/or tannin, an absence of flavor or possibly dirty aromas or flavors.
50 - 59: A wine deemed to be unacceptable.
Prosecco is everywhere nowadays. You can find it in fancy restaurants, music festivals, wedding receptions, and garden parties. It has a clear identity, is affordable, and people from all walks of life drink it. However, few wines are as often misunderstood, and I have heard too many false statements about this wine.
So, in this video, I am going through 10 common mistakes people make to get to the truth about Prosecco. I recently traveled through Prosecco's homeland, visited wineries, and talked to many winemakers. Prosecco is fairly new to the scene and even though its short history is full of successes it still hasn’t been fully understood by many wine drinkers.
So with the help of Prosecco DOC, I want to go through the most common misunderstanding people have about prosecco. I have them here on those Cards.
Proseccos success also means that it has become the term people use for a category. A bit like how the Brand Post-Its is used as a category name for all sticky notes. Many people think that all sparkling wines that are fruit-driven can be called Prosecco even if they have nothing to do with the original.
Proseccos problem in this regard is also, that it sounds similar to the term secco – Italian for dry. There are a lot of wines on the market that are similar in style to Prosecco and have the word Secco in their name … they are not Prosecco though.
The name Prosecco comes from a little village near the town of Trieste. I visited this area a few weeks ago and it is worth the trip. The name doesn’t have anything to do with Secco – it likely comes from the Slavic word Prosek – and cut down forest or opening in a forest
The village gave its name to the DOC – Denominazione di origine controllata, a controlled region of origin.
