Prosecco, overated cheap wine

Mindless air head here.....which one is good please? I had a more expensive one from M and S last year. It was nice.

It depends which Prosecco, doesn’t it? The one I get from a local wine merchant is delicious. I can’t understand posters calling each other names! Surely we’re better than that? I also can’t understand people commenting on a thread about Prosecco when they have never tasted it......

Cheap???? I think that depends whereabouts you shop/eat/drink ??

I love prosecco and I'm not ashamed!

Esspee, can you tell me where you conduct tastings so I can avoid them?

mindless airheads? Nice attitude!

I have been gifted 2 bottles of prosecco today, as a mindless airhead I will really enjoy them - cheers!

Can`t stand it myself.
Glorified fizzy pop.

Not for me, thanks; I'd prefer a glass of Tizer..

Strange place gransnet where one's personal observations are twisted into accusations of name calling. (Looking at you @annsixty, @annodomini, @GrannyGravy13, @inkcog, @Nannarose, @Maggiemaybe, nanaK54 )

It's ok at breakfast with orange juice, along with smoked salmon and scrambled egg.

Esspee no name calling from me, I just said cheers to fellow “fizz” drinkers

I had said I liked Prosecco so of course your post was directed at me and everyone else who likes Prosecco.
Don't try to wriggle out of it now.
Only mindless airheads like Prosecco said your post, ergo I am a mindless airhead.

annsixty I am shall have a glass of prosecco as soon as GS is bathed and in bed ?

I have been called worse names than an “airhead” on GN

Oops no idea where “am” came from

I like it, I like champagne but it,doesn’t like me much, and I like Cava. In fact I like most things but since the menopause I can’t drink much - not a bad thing I guess, one or two glasses is lovely. Cheers everyone.

No wriggling from me @annsixty. I did not attack individual gransnetters and call them airheads.
I said that the people I have served Prosecco to were mindless airheads. I am the one who had to engage in conversation with them so am perfectly entitled to make the observation.
Where I come from we would say you could cause a row in an empty house.

You cant beat a Cinzano and lemonade for a fizzy drink It tastes good and i can have a couple and not suffer a headache next day. Only have a tiple at Xmas and new Year, not into the whole wine thingy!!!!

Stop digging Esspee
Just back from a good night out so I am very mellow.
Early I know but I am not in the first flush of youth, still very much with it though.
Shall we declare a truce?

That's sad, so many snobs commenting on what they don't even know. Why compare Champagne with Prosecco? They are simply different. Champagne is taken care of for years before becoming ready to drink. Prosecco is young, fresh and requires much less manual labor. Lower price doesn't mean lower quality. Keep champagne for great occasions and enjoy Prosecco whenever you like. Just be smart, buy a good bottle at a honest price.

Well I'm not fussy, I like 'em all - Champagne, Cava, Prosecco, and still like a Cinzano and tonic (everybody laughs when I ask for one, it's sooo 1970s, but don't care!)

I find Prosecco terribly sweet and have never found one I liked. Much prefer Cava and Cremant. My favourite of all (apart from champagne) is Nyetimber from England which to my mind is vastly superior to them all

But only if it’s on offer otherwise too expensive.

Another mindless airhead here - I love Prosecco. I especially love it with Aperol!

Happy to be a mindless airhead! Cheers!
