Description
What kind of wine it is
Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze Dry by Marsuret is a white sparkling wine from Veneto that best expresses the characteristics of Glera. It appears a bright straw yellow, enhanced by a lively and persistent perlage. On the nose, it reveals clear notes of white flowers, Golden apple, pear and delicate citrus nuances. On the palate, it is smooth and silky, with balanced freshness and a pleasant residual sweetness that culminates in a harmonious finish.
Where it comes from
This wine is born on the steep slopes of the Cartizze hills, in the heart of the Valdobbiadene Superiore area. In this unique terroir, the Glera vines sink their roots into calcareous-clay soil, benefiting from constant Alpine breezes. This microclimate ensures optimal ripening of the grapes, defining a complex aromatic profile and giving intensity to the fruity aromas characteristic of the area.
How it is produced
Vinification follows a gentle pressing of the grapes to extract only the best must. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The secondary fermentation is carried out using the Charmat Method in autoclave, which gives the typical fine and elegant bubbles. Ageing continues in steel to preserve the freshness and fragrance of the fruit. It is ideal paired with aperitifs, petits fours or delicately flavoured fish dishes.

The Marsura family is known by its old nickname of Marsuret. The family has a long tradition in wine growing and, just like the vines they tend, is a genuine product of the Valdobbiadene hills. The winery was founded in 1936 by Agostino Marsura when he bought a vineyard in Val de Cune in Guia di Valdobbiadene and started to produce the first sparkling wine with natural in-bottle fermentation. His brother Giovanni, many years his junior, dedicated himself to ensuring quality production, looking after the vineyards, harvesting by hand and carefully selecting the grapes used to make the wines. These values continue to form the heart of the Marsuret Winery. Read more
