Description
Prosecco Treviso Galie Extra Dry is produced in the most highly vocational wine-growing areas of Friuli Venezia Giulia, in the cellars of Astoria, which with its trademark and brand is known internationally for its excellent Proseccos at competitive prices. Founded in 1987 by a family of winemakers, it has made technological innovation and structure its hallmark. In its evolution, Astoria has sought to differentiate itself from other wineries by creating highly sophisticated labels and bottles. Multifaceted and distinctive lines pair well with the products, offering a sensorial analysis that starts with the sight and culminates in harmony with the smell and taste.
Produced purely from Glera grapes on the Astoria estate, the Prosecco Treviso Galie Extra Dry is one of the winery's most elegant products. The grapes are harvested by hand between September and October in the first and coldest hours of the night, when the chemical/organoleptic balance is at its maximum. Once they arrive in the cellar, the grapes are softly pressed and the must is static decanted. Primary fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 18/19°C with native yeasts. The resulting new wine is kept on the fine lees for a month to retain its aroma and then clarified before being transferred to an autoclave for secondary fermentation. The Charmat method sparkling winemaking process lasts approximately 25/30 days at 16/18°C. Before being bottled, the wine ages on the same yeasts as the second fermentation for a few days, and then the dosage is added to complete this Extra Dry Prosecco with its fruity and pleasantly acidic character.
