Guided tour of the winery and vineyards where Prosecco Superiore is produced
Visit and Tasting in the winery | Approximately 2 hours
The production area of Prosecco Superiore is entirely located in the province of Treviso and more precisely in the hills around Vittorio Veneto, Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. It is vinified from Glera grapes, a semi-aromatic vine, with the addition of other local grapes such as Bianchetta, Perera and Verdiso. Frequently, even for Conegliano Valdobbiadene, one can speak of heroic viticulture since the steep slopes of the hills do not allow mechanisation and work is painstakingly carried out by hand. The most famous and popular version of this wine is Prosecco Spumante, produced from base wines and fizzed up using the Martinotti-Charmat method, which makes it possible to best express the typical floral and fruity notes. Usually dry, both still and sparkling PROSECCO DOCG are also produced here.
Zoning of vineyards is quintessential, and many producers are adding the “rive” mention on their labels, to underline the extremely high quality of their prosecco, deriving from a particularly fertile land. Conegliano Valdobbiadene is marketed indicating the residual sugar content and it can be Extra-dry, Dry and Brut.
