SPARKLING WINE & CHAMPAGNE Dal Zotto Pucino Prosecco NV An easy drinking Italian style sparkling with a lovely grapey taste and fresh finish. This Australian sparkling goes from strength to strength. It has a slight yeasty character, citrus notes, with a fine crisp palate. The Bathers’ Pavilion house favourite: fresh apples, almond and brioche. Complex yet subtle with a delicate bead.
Si mai busqueu en un mapa actual el nom de Beniopa, no el trobareu enlloc. Va desaparéixer, com a nom i com a poble, quan Gandia, la ciutat, començà a créixer sense parar, i se l’engolí. Gràcies a una llei, doncs, em vaig quedar sense poble, o el que és el mateix, orfe de poble. Per això acostume a dir que sóc fill d’un poble inexistent en un país esborrat. Com també dic que sóc af
