Description
Nino Franco, founded in 1919 in Valdobbiadene, Veneto, is one of the oldest and most respected producers of traditional Prosecco, now led by Primo Franco. The Rustico NV is crafted from 100% Glera grapes grown in the heart of the DOCG zone, picked early to retain freshness and fermented in stainless steel via the Charmat method. No oak is used, and dosage is kept low to preserve clarity and minerality. Pale straw with a fine mousse, this classic Brut Prosecco shows green apple, white blossom, and a hint of almond, delivering precision and balance that's perfect as an aperitif or with light antipasti.
