Nina Franco Prosecco

[wondersofwine]

This may have been my first Prosecco--just a 1.5 oz. pour at a wine bar/restaurant to try it out. It was a medium straw color. Quite refreshing and tasty, slightly lemony. Would go with many appetizers or salads and seafood entrees. Foodie, I got the impression somewhere that Prosecco was like a Champagne Rose' with raspberry flavors and maybe a pink or blush color. Is Prosecco the grape? Is it a white grape? What's the deal?
