Number one pick on a day like today has got to be the awesome Bisol Jeio Prosecco, a favourite from the Wondering Wine Company list and one of their top selling wines from this summer’s run of events. Its affordable, elegant bubbles proving a real winner this summer.
Light, crisp and delicate, the Crede has a lively, fruity palate of apple and pear. With a touch of honeysuckle, and a slight sweetness on the finish…you could say the perfect fizz for a day at the races!

Here at B Times, we love our food and wine and are equally partial to sunning ourselves on holiday. Sun, culture, food and wine… happy days! So when our Prosecco producer, Bisol, informed us of their plan to team up with Creative Escapes to offer top-notch, gastronomic holiday experiences to the Valdobbiadene region, we were eager to know more.
Like all good ideas, …

For the last few years the team at Bisol have extended their winemaking know how away from the beautiful Valdobbiadene region, with the idea of creating a wine from a unique terroir, whilst re-establishing a piece of Venetian history. On the venetian island of Mazzorbo, set within the Venice lagoon, Bisol have re-established grape production and restored an ancient vineyard – with …

As one who likes to go and try out new food and wine haunts in London Town I was always slightly disappointed that a certain area of area of North London was void of a certain quality of gastropub. As it happens this place is Holloway and it’s where I currently reside. An especially and notably dry area of my beloved N7 is Tufnell …

Readers of Spittoon will know I have a ’special relationship’ with Prosecco – that trendy, low-ish alcohol, Italian sparkling wine that I, and many of my friends, seem to be addicted to. There was a recent pop-up meal that matched Riccardo Proseccos to various courses (see Wine Passionista for a great atmosphere encompassing video) …

Despite some of the contenders enjoying various degrees of recovery (it was the night after our annual tasting, after all), it was with great pleasure that Bibendum Times hosted the final of the Bisol Food and Wine matching competition.
Niamh Shields (Eat like a Girl) discovered Bisol’s Prosecco while serving it at the Covent Garden Real Food Market. …

Thank you all again for making it to the Bibendum Times tasting last Wednesday. The Saatchi buzzed for 9 and a half long hours and a record number of people attended.
But the virtual side rocked as well. Going through the twittersphere we were flattered to discover more than 450 tweets bearing the #btimes.
After a long and meticulous sorting process we managed to dig out our 6 favourite tasting notes:

Valdobbiadene
We love Prosecco at Bibendum Times. Lighter than Champagne (and cheaper) with the sort of fresh, frothy personality that fits in perfectly around here, it is our sort of fizz. Normally, we prefer drinking it to talking about the legalities of it but some big news has come out of the lush hills of Valdobbiadene recently.
The gist of …
I know the headline lacks my usual rapier-like wit or subtle understatement, but I was a bit short on inspiration and the message here is very simple. Between midday and 8pm tomorrow, two of my favourite fellow bloggers will be running their first ever stall at the Covent Garden market.
Their offering, like any great food and wine enterprise, is simple. Smoked Salmon from Ireland’s greatest smoker and Prosecco from Italy’s finest. Prices are …
