Lime wedge, shaved ice, lemon flesh. Granny Smith apple, citrus blossom, grapefruit juice. Smooth gravel and stony minerals, water lilies and subtle mint. Strikingly pure citrus fruit drives a clean and spritzy attack bolstered slightly by crunchy pear and a light tinge of nectarine. Simple florals provide minor lift before enticing minerality assumes control with wonderfully dry and crisp refreshment. Noticeably turbid in the glass with plenty of obvious sediment in bottle; ever-so-delicately sparkling and sitting at just 10.5% ABV. Ultra-light bodied with delightfully high acidity. This NV Vino Bianco Frizzante by Integrale is a deliciously fresh, uncomplicated, unpretentious summer bubbly from Italy.

While it can be easy to love deeply complex and contemplative wine sometimes the occasion calls for something a little more straightforward. This bottling, crafted by Integrale using a mix of native Italian grape varieties and fermented a second time in bottle without disgorgement, is an extremely unique and fun sparkler perfect for any occasion when thinking is not a top priority. It is fresh, juicy, and full of playful primary character that quenches and refreshes with whimsical excitement. The effervescence here is quite mild yet adds a cheerful and flirtatious edge to an otherwise lighthearted and lively wine. An excellent affordable pick to drink outside all summer long.
