Bisol makes a couple of very good ones.
Zardetto is one of the most readily available Prosceccos, pretty good and often on sale for good prices. I've liked Astoria (cheap) and Mionetta. Nino Franco Rustico can be very good, though I've experienced what I think are shipping/storage issues on some. HTH |

Nino Franco 'Rustico' is very good, as Dale mentioned, and fairly
inexpensive too. Slightly dry, and very refreshing. Another I've enjoyed is the Col Vetoraz Prosecco - this one may be a tad more expensive than the Nino Franco, but it's a really great quaffer; light, fruity and quite minerally. Not as dry as the other, and a bit sweeter. Salil |

Ruggerio makes a nice one, but availability is spotty. Zardetto is
solid and easy to find. The New York Times had a prosecco roundup this past summer, which listed some recommendations. I might have saved a copy of it--will look for it later. -- To email me, remove the invalid word in my address & change net to com. |

I just tried the Ruggerio last night that was shipped from Wine Library. Quite nice and a good price. Good mousse and almost almond nose with some lemon peel thrown in. |
