Charmat Method Sparkling Wines
Le Colture Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze Dry
This bowl-shaped hilly terrain is composed of sandstone and clay marl that ensures that the glera grapes almost achieve over-ripeness, and thus develop an inimitable concentration of aromas. The resulting sparkling wine retains all the crispness of a Prosecco Superiore, takes on a slight sweetness and exhibits a dense complex of fragrances.

Perlage

Very fine and continuous.

Colour

Pale straw yellow.

Bouquet

Intense aroma.

Flavour

In this case the sparkling wine, whilst maintaining the freshness of Prosecco, becomes sweeter, encapsulating a special abundance of perfumes recalling the flavour of soft fruits like apricots and peaches, which then blend into a hint of orange flowers and roses.

Pairing

Ideal as an aperitif, with fish dishes, cheeses.
