title: Bruno Giacosa 1996 Dino Nero Spumante  (Piedmont)
description: Palate-pleasing toasty, vanilla-cracker and tropical-fruit flavors. Fine bubbles lend a richness to the mouthfeel; the lush, nutty finish extends deliciously on and on. This could almost pass for a French tête de cuvée, except for the distinctly almond note (very tasty at that) running through the finish.
variety: Champagne Blend
designation: Dino Nero Spumante
