Fresh, fruit-forward, fun and approachable fizz!
With Prosecco sales continuing to boom, up 55% in value and 39% in volume in 2018, three clever wine enthusiasts sort to reclaim some of that territory with something similar but home-grown. And so, in 2016, Fitz was born.
Fitz is a sparkling wine from England, but not as you know it. Unlike your usual (Champagne style) English sparkling, this fun, fruity fizz is Prosecco-like in taste and price. The grapes used to make it aren’t very well known but they’re perfectly suited to the English climate. This Charmat method wine – whereby the secondary fermentation is in tank, rather than bottle – is friendlier to both palate and pocket, appealing to those who love a fruit-led (peach & apple flavours), fresh and easy drinking sparkling. And of course, the big bonus…it comes from England! Hooray!
