Description
What kind of wine it is
The Biancavigna Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Rive di Soligo Extra Brut sparkling wine stands out for its dry and precise profile. Born from a harmonious blend of Glera, Perera and Verdiso grapes, it appears in the glass with a bright straw yellow colour, enriched by green reflections. The aromatic bouquet centres on notes of ripe fruit reminiscent of pineapple, apricot, plum and pear, finely interwoven with floral and mineral tones. On the palate, it offers a soft and creamy taste, revealing itself as elegant and persistent, finishing with a pleasant and distinctive almond note.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine originates in Conegliano Valdobbiadene, in the prestigious subzone of Rive di Soligo in Veneto. The Rive designation identifies a production limited to the steep hills of this area, which require great dedication to hillside viticulture. Biancavigna works to deliver the most authentic expression of the local landscape. The characteristics of the soil are directly reflected in the wine's aromatic complexity and in a lively and persistent perlage.
How it is produced
The production process begins with a manual harvest, followed by gentle pressing. After static decantation, the must ferments at a controlled temperature. The prise de mousse takes place using the Charmat method in stainless steel tanks, where the wine remains for up to one hundred and fifty days. This prolonged ageing on the lees gives the sparkling wine a refined structure. Finally, this Biancavigna creation rests for a further three months, reaching the ideal balance to accompany shellfish and flavourful cheeses.
History and Curiosities
Originating from the prestigious Rive di Soligo, this Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG embodies the authentic essence of the Venetian hills, cultivated by the BiancaVigna winery since 2004. The result of meticulous hand harvesting, this sparkling wine acquires extraordinary aromatic complexity thanks to a slow Charmat method with 150 days resting on the lees. Its Extra Brut profile, elegant and lively, offers enveloping fruity aromas and an intriguing almond finish: an undisputed excellence, celebrated with the prestigious Tre Bicchieri Gambero Rosso award.
