It earned a Gold award at the 2022 Sommeliers Choice Awards, and its extended tank-aging process creates noticeably finer, more persistent bubbles than typical Prosecco.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e ABV: 11%  |  Origin: Treviso, Veneto, Italy  |  Style: Extra Dry Prosecco  |  Producer: Pasqua Vigneti e Cantine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eProduction \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePasqua Vigneti e Cantine, based in Veneto, produces this Prosecco using the Charmat (tank) method with 100% Glera grapes sourced from the Treviso growing area. What distinguishes this bottling from many competitors is an extended secondary fermentation period — Pasqua keeps the wine under pressure in the tank for 60 days rather than the industry-standard 30 days. That longer contact time yields smaller, more persistent bubbles and a rounder mouthfeel that sets Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet apart within the category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e The nose opens with lemon zest and wildflowers before moving into riper notes of apricot and a subtle hint of banana.

The mid-palate broadens with honeydew melon and a touch of candied ginger, while grapefruit-like citrus keeps the wine focused. The mousse is fine-beaded and creamy thanks to the extended tank time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e The finish is medium in length with a pleasantly tangy, mineral quality.

The bubbles are fine and persistent, creating a creamy mouthfeel unusual at this price tier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco compare to Mionetto Prestige Prosecco?\u003c\/strong\u003e Both are Charmat-method Proseccos from the Veneto region made with Glera grapes, but Pasqua's 60-day tank fermentation — double the standard time — produces noticeably finer bubbles and a rounder texture. Mionetto Prestige tends to lean lighter and more overtly floral, while Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet delivers more citrus depth and mineral complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco good for cocktails?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — its bright acidity, persistent mousse, and citrus-driven profile make it an excellent base for spritzes, Bellinis, and other Prosecco cocktails without losing its character under additional ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco made?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is produced by Pasqua Vigneti e Cantine using Glera grapes from the Treviso DOC zone within Veneto, northeastern Italy — one of Prosecco's most established growing areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat foods pair well with Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco?\u003c\/strong\u003e Fresh burrata with cherry tomatoes and basil highlights the wine's creamy mousse. Fried calamari benefits from the acidity cutting through the oil. Prosciutto-wrapped melon echoes the honeydew note on the mid-palate. Sushi and lighter sashimi pair well with the wine's mineral finish and citrus brightness. Lemon tart mirrors its dominant citrus character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat sizes does Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e The standard available size is 750ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco worth the price?\u003c\/strong\u003e It positions as an accessible, everyday Prosecco that punches above its weight thanks to the extended 60-day tank fermentation — a production step more commonly found in pricier bottlings. The Gold award at the 2022 Sommeliers Choice Awards reinforces its strong value within the category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eWhy Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet Prosecco?\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 60-day tank fermentation is the headline here — it is twice the industry norm and directly responsible for the wine's finer bead and creamier texture, a tangible quality difference you can see in the glass. That production distinction earned it Gold at the 2022 Sommeliers Choice Awards, a competition judged by working sommeliers evaluating drinkability, value, and food-pairing versatility. Made from 100% Glera in the Treviso DOC, this is Prosecco rooted in one of the category's most reliable growing zones. For anyone who has written off Prosecco as interchangeable, Romeo \u0026amp; Juliet makes a compelling case that small production decisions can yield meaningfully different results.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pasqua Romeo \u0026 Juliet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44837922767017,"sku":"34725","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0680\/1024\/6313\/files\/Pasqua-Romeo-Juliet-Prosecco__01284.jpg?v=1730500619"}],"url":"https:\/\/theliquorbarn.com\/collections\/pasqua-romeo-juliet.oembed","provider":"The Liquor Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
