Spumante - Answer -The word "spumante" — which means "foaming" in Italian — is a
general term used for almost any type of sparkling wine made in Italy. It is something of
a catchall phrase and as such encompasses wines that are dry, sweet, and semi-sweet
at a wide variety of price points. Most wines that fit within this broad category also have
more specific names that identify their geographic origins or the grapes that they were
made from.
Frizzante - Answer -Frizzante wines have small bubbles that offer a refreshing tingle
while helping to mask the wine's sweetness. They are also considered to be slightly less
effervescent than champagne. People who find champagne to be too "fizzy" may find
that a frizzante is a good alternative choice for weddings, anniversaries, holidays, and
other special occasions.
