About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The wine comes from a single vineyard at Gorgo al Monticano, part of the Dal Bianco family’s historic estate where the business began in 1946. The grapes are selected both on the vine and at the winery and are harvested from late August to early September.

Vinification

Gravity carries the grapes through white vinification off the skins at a controlled 15–18°C. Secondary fermentation and maturation on selected yeasts normally last approximately 90 days in pressure tanks at 13–14°C. Bottle pressure is 5.0 atm.

Ageing

After approximately 90 days in pressure tanks, the wine rests for around one month before release.

Technical data

Prosecco DOC Treviso Extra Brut. Alcohol is 11% and residual sugar is 3 g/L. Formats are 0.75 L, 1.5 L and 3 L.

Tasting profile

Bright straw yellow with dense, refined perlage. Apple and pear aromas combine with acacia and hawthorn flowers and a touch of elderflower. These sensations continue on the palate, which is elegant and linear, with lively acidity and a clean, persistent finish.

Serving and pairing
