Prosecco: The Perfect Drink in the HEAT

Yeah, it's snowing but we're thinking about summer anyway.

We Middle Ragers are sophisticated. We are global. We love Italy. We do not just drink copious amounts of red wine.

Today's piece is about Prosecco, the Italian sparkling wine, that is the perfect drink in the summer heat.  It's actually perfect for anytime - with brunch or appetizers before that great bottle of red.  It's a bit fruitier than champagne and a lot more affordable.

According to Terry, the maestro at thee BEST wine shop in DC, Scheinder's on Capitol Hill, the best two Prosecco's are now in season and affordable to boot.  They are:

1. La Tordera (Brut) $20

2. Prima Perla $12.99

Salut!
