The new range contains 32 wines which were selected by master of wine Jonathan Pedley and wine buyer Louise Boddington from more than 200 different wines.
Pedley said: “Prosecco sales continue at mind boggling levels but the feedback from our customers is that they are now looking for a truly dry (Brut) Prosecco.”
The two new Proseccos are Lyric Prosecco Extra Dry, exclusive to Crown Cellars, and a Terra Serena Brut Prosecco.
Pedley added: “Most Prosecco in the UK is labelled ‘extra dry” but actually has a noticeable amount of sweetness when you taste it. The excellent Terra Serena does not.”
Crown Cellars says its portfolio of wines is designed to help on-trade operators’ wine lists stand out from the crowd and Spain has the most new still wines in the 2017/18 portfolio.
Pedley continued: “There has been a complete revolution in the Spanish wine industry, such that today Spain probably delivers the best quality: price proposition in the world.”
