Winemaker Notes
Fresh and elegant. Layers and layers of flavors. Elderberry, anise, Italian summer, melon, beeswax and seashells live within so many tiny bubbles. Totally delicious!
Grower-driven, vintage-dated, pure and fresh, Secco Italian
Bubbles denes the "dolce vita." Growing up in Rome, Italy,
Ginevra and Olivia Casa always had an infatuation for Prosecco. In
2010, after the change in laws pertaining to Prosecco production,
the Casa sisters jumped on the opportunity to champion both the
noble varietals and the growers of Chardonnay and created a new
category of sparkling wine called Secco Italian Bubbles.
Enter Charles Smith, Washington state’s rock star winemaker and
fellow lover of Prosecco. "Who can resist a big fat glass of cold
Italian bubbles?" said Smith. This year, Charles and the Casa sisters
decided to enhance the portfolio and add Moscato and Manzoni Moscato to the current Secco lineup of Bianco and Rose. As Ginevra Casa advises, "Drink Secco to celebrate everyday life!"
