Not Prosecco

I spotted a bottle of voile blanche brut sparkling verdicchio in the store the other day. Somewhat unusual, so I had to try it. I liked it more than my husband did, he found it too acidic for his taste. It is a wine with bubbles (and decent bubbles!) rather than a champagne or a Prosecco. It had good orchard fruit flavor, with lots of crisp, juicy pear. This was complemented by a bit of mint, not too strong. It lacked finish, just disappearing fizzily from the mouth. It was a good accompaniment to some fresh apple crisp, with the sweetness of the dessert balancing the acidity of the wine. I don't know that I would buy it again, but it was interesting to try once.
