The name “52” makes direct reference both to the year in which Santa Margherita started making sparkling Prosecco and to the number of parcels of vineyard – in the historic heartland of the Prosecco di Valdobbiadene D.O.C.G. production zone – from which the grapes come that are used to make this sparkling wine, with its pronounced yet elegant personality on both the nose and palate.
Tasting notes
It is a fresh, youthful wine, with a bright straw yellow color and greenish reflections. On the nose it is reminiscent of the floral aromas of peach and acacia blossom as well as the fruity hints of Rennet apples and pineapple. It is well-balanced on the palate, with moderate acidity but elegantly rounded fruit. When poured, one notes a gentle, persistent foam, followed by a fine perlage that lifts the wine’s intense aromas and covers the tongue and palate with inviting taste sensations.
Serving suggestions
An outstanding aperitif, it is also ideal with little fish or cheese appetizers or can be served throughout a meal, as long as the dishes are delicately flavored.
