Description
What kind of wine it is
Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Brut by Ca’ di Rajo is a dry and elegant sparkling wine from Veneto, made exclusively from Glera grapes using the long Charmat Method. In the glass, it displays a bright straw yellow colour with delicate greenish highlights. Its very fine and persistent perlage enhances a refined bouquet, where notes of acacia flowers intertwine with fresh hints of apple, lemon and grapefruit. On the palate, it is smooth and savoury, offering a well-balanced flavour profile that leads the sip towards a harmonious and clean finish, enriched by a subtle mineral touch.
Where it comes from
This wine expression originates in Guia, at the heart of the hilly Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore area. The vineyards stretch across steep slopes up to four hundred metres above sea level, benefiting from an ideal exposure for the development of precise and complex aromas. The clay soils of the Treviso area give the wine a marked savouriness and a clear freshness on the palate. The vineyard management respects the natural vocation of the area through the use of the double overturned Sylvoz training system and the maintenance of the historic Bellussera system, practices that fully enhance the characteristics of the terroir.
How it is produced
Work in the vineyard is carried out manually up to the harvest, when the best bunches are carefully selected. After a very gentle pressing to preserve the quality of the must, the prise de mousse takes place in an autoclave following the long Charmat Method. This second fermentation, lasting almost three months, ensures excellent aromatic expression and an elegant perlage. The process concludes with a controlled maturation of forty-five days. Best served well chilled, it pairs harmoniously with fish dishes, shellfish, sushi, cured meats, soft cheeses and pizza.
History and Curiosities
This flagship wine was created as a sincere tribute to the founder of the Ca’ di Rajo winery. The grapes are sourced from steep slopes in the prestigious Guia area, where every stage of production is carried out strictly by hand, from pruning to harvesting. The company also stands out for maintaining traditional and historical agronomic practices of the region, such as the Bellussera training system.

The company uses the most innovative winemaking technologies, however, its modern facility and young team are located in a fascinating historical context, in an estate located within a medieval village.
