Description
What kind of wine it is
Astoria Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Corderie Extra Dry is an elegant Extra Dry sparkling wine made from Glera grapes. This Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore displays a pale straw yellow colour, enhanced by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers a clean bouquet, characterised by notes of yellow fruit and delicate floral nuances. On the palate, it is harmonious and creamy, supported by a vibrant freshness that enhances its appeal. Its sensory profile makes it perfect for aperitifs, light starters and fish dishes.
Where it comes from
The grapes ripen on the hills of Refrontolo, in the heart of the Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore region. The vineyards, situated at around one hundred and fifty metres above sea level, enjoy ideal exposure for balanced ripening. Trained using the Sylvoz system, the vines benefit from a carefully planned density to ensure maximum quality. The manual harvest, carried out between the end of September and the beginning of October, allows for a rigorous selection of the bunches, preserving the aromatic integrity and typical fruity character of the Glera variety.
How it is produced
Production involves a gentle pressing to safeguard the primary aromas of the grapes. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature with selected yeasts. The wine then rests on the fine lees for a period of between thirty and forty-five days, gaining greater complexity. The prise de mousse follows the Charmat Method in autoclave and lasts about a month, followed by a final ageing on the lees which ensures perfect harmony on the palate.
History and Curiosities
Inspired by the ancient Venetian guild of rope makers, the Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Corderie by Astoria is born among the renowned hills of Refrontolo. This prestigious non-vintage sparkling wine, awarded the Grand Gold Medal at Vinitaly, demonstrates a commitment to certified quality and environmental sustainability. Crafted using the meticulous Charmat Method, it rests in the bottle for thirty days before revealing a creamy and harmonious profile. Its exclusive 1.5-litre Magnum format is the perfect ally to elevate any special occasion.
