Description
What kind of wine is it
Valdobbiadene Cuvée Tenuta Val de Brun Extra Dry by Astoria is a sparkling wine from Veneto with Denomination of Controlled and Guaranteed Origin, made entirely from Glera grapes using the Charmat method. In the glass, it displays a straw yellow colour with greenish highlights and an extremely fine perlage. The aromatic profile is rich with notes of peach, melon and apple, accompanied by floral hints. On the palate, it is fresh and harmonious, with balanced acidity and the softness typical of the Extra Dry style, finishing with a clean aftertaste and notes of dried fruit.
Where does it come from
This wine originates from the hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, an outstanding landscape recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The grapes are grown at the Tenuta Val de Brun estate in Refrontolo, on vineyards situated at one hundred and fifty metres above sea level. The east to west sun exposure ensures optimal ripening, giving the wine a vibrant freshness and preserving the aromatic integrity of the variety.
How is it produced
Production begins with manual harvesting in September. Primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature. Before completion, the must is transferred to a pressurised tank for the prise de mousse following the Charmat method in a single cycle. A brief ageing on the lees for fifteen days imparts balance and harmony, keeping the aromas intact. Before release, the sparkling wine rests in the cellar for several weeks.
