What is VOGA Prosecco Still?
Prosecco is an Italian sparkling wine that hails from the Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia regions in Northeastern Italy. Known for its light, fruity flavor, Prosecco is made primarily from the Glera grape.
Prosecco comes in three main types: Spumante, Frizzante, and Tranquillo. Spumante is the most common and is fully sparkling, known for its vibrant bubbles and crisp, refreshing taste, often enjoyed during celebrations.
Frizzante is semi-sparkling, with a lighter fizz that makes it more versatile and suitable for casual occasions. Tranquillo, or Still Prosecco, has no bubbles and offers a delicate, smooth flavor profile.
Still Prosecco is made by fermenting glera grapes in wine tasks, like in the Charmat method. However, in this case, the second fermentation process that creates bubbles is skipped.
VOGA Still Prosecco is creamy in nature and is perfect for those who prefer a less bubbly, but equally delightful beverage. The still Sbagliato cocktail is a delightful way to enjoy VOGA Prosecco Still.
Origin
The origin of Still Prosecco Sbagliato stems from the classic Negroni Sbagliato, which means “mistaken” or “broken” Negroni in Italian.
The traditional Negroni Sbagliato was created when a bartender accidentally used sparkling wine instead of gin, giving birth to a new, popular cocktail. This twist maintains the essence of the original mistake while providing a unique take on the beloved drink.
