Description
What kind of wine it is
Ruggeri Giustino B. Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Extra Dry is a white sparkling wine made from Glera grapes. Produced in Veneto, this wine fully expresses the character of Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore. The production follows the Charmat Method, using selected yeasts for the secondary fermentation. Visually, it displays a bright straw yellow colour, enlivened by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it reveals notes of yellow apple, peach and acacia flowers, enriched by fresh hints of pink grapefruit. On the palate, it offers a harmonious and elegant sip, characterised by a pleasant fullness and well-balanced acidity.
Where it comes from
The grapes come from the renowned hilly area between Valdobbiadene and Conegliano, located north of Treviso. The vineyards benefit from excellent exposure and ideal temperature variations, which are essential for developing the aromatic profile of Glera. The soils are able to retain the necessary water reserves without causing stagnation, promoting a balanced flavour profile and a pronounced richness of aromas. The name on the label is a tribute to Giustino Bisol, who founded the winery in 1950, and represents Ruggeri's commitment to enhancing an outstanding winegrowing region.
How it is produced
The production cycle begins with a strictly manual harvest carried out in September to preserve the integrity of the grapes. Once in the winery, the grapes undergo gentle pressing and subsequent white vinification at a controlled temperature. The wine matures at low temperatures until spring, when it is transferred to a pressurised tank for the prise de mousse. During this stage, a slow secondary fermentation takes place with a period on the lees of about three months. This meticulous process defines the structural and aromatic components of the sparkling wine, which completes its journey at the beginning of June.
History and Curiosities
Created to honour the founder Giustino Bisol, who opened the winery in 1950, this Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG embodies the experience of five generations. The result of meticulous research, this sparkling wine undergoes a slow refermentation in autoclave before being bottled at the beginning of June. An unwavering commitment to excellence has enabled this wine to achieve prestigious international awards, revealing itself on the palate as an elegant and harmonious sparkling wine, capable of enhancing the prestige of the renowned Treviso region.

Ruggeri’s roots stretch far back to the nineteenth century, to Eliseo Bisol, who, along with his son Luigi was one of the first winemakers in Valdobbiadene. The business’s significant growth began in 1950 when Giustino Bisol founded the current winery with his cousin, and it was his surname, Ruggeri, that was chosen as the company name. The unswerving commitment to excellence continued with the work of Giustino’s son, Paolo, and granddaughter Isabella.
Since 2017, Ruggeri has been part of the Rotkäppchen-Mumm Group, a highly fruitful partnership which has paired our shared visions, trust in common values and a mutual commitment to ever higher quality standards. Read more
