Description
What kind of wine it is
L’Ovest by Sorelle Bronca is a Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore made from a blend of Glera, Perera and Bianchetta grapes. In the glass, it displays a straw yellow colour with greenish highlights, enhanced by a very fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it releases complex aromas of white fruit, enriched by delicate floral notes of acacia and wisteria. The Extra Dry dosage offers an elegant and joyful sip, where lively freshness harmoniously blends with the residual sugar, giving the wine remarkable depth of flavour.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine is produced in the heart of Veneto, within the Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore area, among the hills of Col San Martino, Colbertaldo and Farrò. The estate’s vineyards are managed following a strict ecological and biodynamic approach, excluding the use of chemical fertilisers and artificial irrigation. Among the rows, trained using the traditional capovolto system, the grass is allowed to grow spontaneously to preserve biodiversity. The exclusively manual harvest ensures meticulous selection of the bunches, capable of conveying the authentic expression of the terroir into the glass.
How it is produced
The cellar process begins with gentle pressing of the whole grapes. The first fermentation in steel tanks occurs spontaneously thanks to the action of indigenous yeasts. Subsequently, the prise de mousse follows the Charmat-Martinotti method, with a period on the lees lasting at least four months. This artisanal technique enhances the primary fruit aromas, ensuring a lively and extremely fine mousse and an overall structure of impeccable balance.
History and Curiosities
Born among the hills of Veneto, Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG L’Ovest by Sorelle Bronca expresses the authenticity of the region through ecological and biodynamic practices. The grapes, meticulously hand-picked from the family-owned vineyards, are processed using the Charmat-Martinotti method with exclusively indigenous yeasts. After maturing for four months in stainless steel on the lees, the wine offers a very fine and persistent perlage. This sparkling wine combines notes of white fruit and acacia flowers in a harmonious and extremely elegant sip.

Only from our vineyards, cared for with passion and harvested by hand with the boxes, we obtain wines that are symbols of the territory but also of man’s ability to get the best out of nature. Hence the fundamental role of research for us understood not only as a way of moving forward but also as an exaltation of what is different by nature, analyzing it in-depth, and questioning each of its aspects as part of a much more complex whole.
The experimentation of new natural preparations for the defense of the vine, the adoption of the modern vision of an ancient technique such as the association between different plant species, the study of spontaneous fermentation is just some of the elementary particles that make up the wine of our cellar.
The search for quality guides our daily work.Hence the sense of our choices and the natural development of our history. The obsession for quality and the great love for the landscape led us years ago on the road to eco-sustainability, respecting the nature that surrounds us, and that gives us its best fruits.
Quality has been our passport to the world. It has allowed us to feel the pride of presenting a high-level Italian product, helping to keep the image of Prosecco Superiore and the winemaking tradition of our country high. Read more
