Dom Bertiol Brut Prosecco

Spanning 45 hectares in Treviso — located in the province of Veneto in northeastern Italy — the Campea di Miane vineyard is situated at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. By using the guyot training method, the vineyards achieved a planting density of 4000 vines/hectare. The vines benefit from southwestern exposures and soil of volcanic origin. A manual harvest was conducted in September. The initial fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks for 7 days at a cool temperature of 17°C. The must was then stored in pressure tanks made of stainless steel for 2 months over which time it slowly developed froth by completing a natural secondary fermentation. Known as the Charmat method, this is what renders the wine sparkling. The wine was micro-filtered and fined before bottling.

Tasting Notes:
Flower and fruit aromas abound in the bouquet. On the palate, it is crisp and refreshing with its fine, yet persistent foam.

Food Pairings:
Ideal as an aperitif, enjoyed either on its own or accompanied by hors d’oeuvres. An excellent, less costly alternative to Champagne.
