Hey welcome. It's uh Domain Dave again, cheapwinefinder.com. Another uh value price wine review. We write them up on the cheapwinefinder.com website. I'll put all the different photographs and the links to everything so you can kind of explore. And then we plug in the microphone. And uh today we've got the uh the original Neat King V that is the ugliest, ugliest microphone you ever saw, but it records really well. So what we have is a $16.99 Trader Joe's, though it's not a Trader Joe's exclusive. It's the Desaccordia D D Dossi Extra Dry Rose Prosecco 2025. So this is a vintage dated Prosecco, which is kind of rare, especially in value price, and it's $16.99 here. It lists for $25, and you can find it elsewhere for $19 to $25. This is not an inexpensive wine, and it's actually from a winery, a third-generation winery in Italy that's $47 AD. AD. $47 AD was the name of the Roman road that went through the vineyards. And there's a couple other wineries, they're all making wine under the same umbrella, same brand name that are exploring kind of a mid-lap mid-tier, not value, not high-end wines of the region. So you're getting you're still getting value, and you're still paying a little bit more, but you're getting more for your money. I'm gonna take a sip of this one. It's got a well, I doubt if it's actually cut glass. It's probably molded that way. But it's a uh the bottle of cut glass, and the foil around the top of it was a very sparkly uh gold, almost like Christmas ribbon of some sort. So it's a nice looking package. Like I said, you don't find vintage dated prosecco that often. And usually it's in the like the upper end of uh wineries. This is like their finest wine, because they do vintage-dated wines in good years. The uh the the vineyards produce very good grapes and they want to document that year. Normally they'll do um, they'll blend different vinages together because they want to get a house style, but not here, not here. They're they're this one, they're letting you see what happened in the vineyard that year. And this is a nice bubbly with a lot of uh energetic bubbles. It has 10 to 15 percent uh Pinot Nero, which is Pinot Noir, because it is a rose and the glara grape, which Brosecco is the Glara grape. That's a green grape. You can't make a bubbly out of uh that, so they had to get a red grape, and that's Pinot Nero. About two-thirds of the um sparkling wines in Italy are extra dry. It um in Champagne it's dry wines. But for secco with the glared grape, it could use a little bit of that sugar, and since the wine it's a natural acidity, the sugar and the acidity tend to balance each other out, and you really don't get a strong sweet wine. You might get a little sweetness on the palate, and this wine definitely has a little sweetness on the palate, but it more gives you a rounded fruit flavors, and um it tastes great. Just took a sip and it's got um lime. It's got a little bit of candied cherry, peach, pear, green apple. Touch of tropical, not a lot. It's lip smacking acidity, but it's not overly lip smacking acidity to where you're it's it's an acid bomb. Just enough to want to get make you take a sip. And it and that sip is a good sip. It is vegan friendly, or it's 100% vegan. It's it's certified vegan, and it's certified organic. They actually call it in Italy bioorganic, which is like um you know a super organic, super vegan kind of wine. And and that's what we have here. So you're getting a kind of a special wine. You're getting a well-made wine. It's intentionally, it's made for this mid-level, but don't think of it as being mid. Think of it as being touch a little a bit a bit better. And $16.99 for Trader Joe's wines, that's kind of high. I mean, their their champagnes are maybe $24.25, and this is eight, nine bucks below that, but it's a solid, tasty wine. And it's it looks good. The cut glass, they have a little bitty label on it, so it doesn't so it doesn't take away from how the bottle looks. It's got the 47 AD is embossed on it. It's a good looking package and a good tasting uh bubbling. There's a touch of sweetness there, but it it's it's welcome. I I'm not typically a fan of sweet wines. I mean, I started out back in the day with sweet German wines and I graduated from that, but I already kind of got past that. But this uh Dassi Accordio D Dacy Rose Extra Drive Prosecco 2025. It's a little bit more expensive for uh uh Trader Joe's, but you can see where the money went. This is a very nice wine, and it looks good. You can put it on the table, people won't be in friends. The neighbors come over, you pull it out, and it looks like a fancy wine, and it is a fancy wine because it tastes like a fancy wine, and I think it's worth $17. Sometimes spend a little bit more makes sense. So there you go, adios, domain Dave Cheapwinefinder.com. This was a very nice wine from Trader Joe's, a good package, organic, vegan, and good tasting. So adios, keep it cheap. Bye bye.
