The Story
Made exclusively from Glera grapes from the Veneto region. A selection of the best hilly and low yielding sites combined with improved Winemaking techniques underpin this limited edition Prosecco. Glera is a late ripening, disease-prone grape variety, for these reasons we do select hilly, hence more ventilated and less humid, areas that allow the grapes to reach full ripeness while avoiding plant diseases, likely to compromise the primary aromas of the grapes. The Charmat method helps in retaining primary fruit character making this wine a straightforward expression of terroir.
Winemaking
Produced from Glera grapes of the vineyards located in the province of Treviso. The primary fermentation occurs in steel vats at controlled temperature, with specially selected yeasts. The Charmat method for producing effervescence from a second fermentation performed in pressurized tanks is meant to preserve fruit and freshness. This particular wine is defined by a slow second fermentation, 3 months rather than the regular 20 days of ageing. This results in an extremely intense bouquet supported by a fine perlage, a balanced cuvée, as Elegant as a Venetian Dress.
Tasting Notes
