Description
What kind of wine it is
The Senior Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Extra Dry by Bortolomiol is a sparkling wine from Veneto made from Glera grapes, produced with secondary fermentation in a pressurised tank according to the Martinotti-Charmat method. It stands out for its Extra Dry style and vegan profile, offering a fine and persistent perlage that accompanies delicate aromas of green apple, yellow fruit and hawthorn. On the palate, it is creamy and harmonious, perfectly balancing freshness and softness, leading to a savoury and elegant finish.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine originates from the hills of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, a pre-Alpine area in Veneto renowned for its steep slopes. The terrain's morphology requires meticulous manual labour, giving rise to what is known as heroic viticulture. The pre-Alpine soils impart a pronounced minerality to the grapes, resulting in a pleasant gustatory tension. The climate, sunny and breezy, is characterised by significant temperature variations between day and night. These temperature swings are essential for preserving the aromatic profile of the Glera grape, ensuring the wine's balance and lively freshness.
How it is produced
Production begins in September with a manual harvest aimed at selecting the best bunches. In the winery, white vinification and gentle pressing are carried out, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature. The secondary fermentation takes place in a pressurised tank following the Martinotti-Charmat method for about a month, developing an elegant effervescence. A subsequent ageing on the lees lasting one or two months enriches the structure and roundness of the palate. This period of rest is essential to give the wine its typical harmony before the final maturation.
History and Curiosities
Bortolomiol Senior Prosecco bears witness to a family vocation that has been handed down on the hills of Valdobbiadene since the eighteenth century. The Latin name highlights its authority within the Traditional line, while the Roman numeral “II” on the capsule elegantly places it between the driest and the more mellow versions. The result of heroic viticulture with manual harvesting on steep slopes, this sparkling wine is produced using the Charmat method. A perfect blend of history and quality, consecrated by 4 Bibenda Grapes and 90 points from Luca Maroni.
