How sweet is zonin Prosecco?

Answered by Jesse Garza

Zonin Prosecco, like most Prosecco wines, is typically produced in a “brut” style, which means it is quite dry. However, the fresh and fruity character of Prosecco often gives the impression that it is sweeter than it actually is. This can be attributed to the flavors of ripe apple, pear, and peach that are commonly found in Prosecco wines.

While Prosecco is generally dry, there are also “extra dry” styles available in the market. These particular Proseccos have slightly higher levels of residual sugar, which gives them a touch of sweetness. The term “extra dry” can be a bit misleading, as it suggests a sweeter , but it actually refers to a style that is slightly less dry than the standard brut Prosecco.

The sweetness level of Zonin Prosecco can vary depending on the specific bottling, as different producers may have their own interpretations of the style. However, Zonin Prosecco is known for its balanced and refreshing character, with a subtle sweetness that enhances its fruit flavors without being overpowering.

As a sommelier and brewer, I have had the opportunity to taste and evaluate various Prosecco wines, including Zonin Prosecco. In my experience, Zonin Prosecco tends to lean towards the drier side, with a crisp and clean taste. The level of sweetness is well-balanced, allowing the natural fruit flavors to shine through without overwhelming the palate.

It is important to note that personal taste preferences can also influence how one perceives the sweetness of a wine. What may be perceived as sweet to one person may be considered dry by another. Therefore, it is always helpful to taste the wine for yourself to determine your own perception of sweetness.
