Description
What kind of wine it is
Astoria Prosecco Treviso Tiemo Brut is a sparkling wine that enhances the liveliness of Glera grapes. The aromatic bouquet opens with fresh citrus notes and floral nuances, intertwined with herbal hints and delicate touches of pear and Golden apple. On the palate, it is fragrant and pleasantly savoury, characterised by a fine and persistent perlage that offers an inviting creamy texture. The clean finish and balanced taste make it the ideal companion for aperitifs, elegantly complementing fish dishes, cheeses, and delicate spring risottos.
Where it comes from
This wine is produced in Susegana, among the hillside vineyards of the Val de Brun estate, set in a Veneto landscape recognised as a World Heritage Site. Here, Astoria cultivates its rows to best enhance Prosecco Treviso. The terroir ensures the grapes have excellent aromatic clarity and vibrant freshness. The swift transition from harvest to pressing is essential to preserve the primary aromas of the raw material, transferring the authentic essence of this historic production area into the glass.
How it is produced
The Glera grapes are hand-harvested during the coolest hours of the night to protect the fruit's natural freshness. After gentle pressing and static decantation of the must, primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures with indigenous yeasts. The wine rests on the fine lees for a month; the subsequent secondary fermentation occurs in a pressurised tank according to the Charmat Method. Finally, a brief period on the secondary fermentation lees accompanies the sparkling wine until bottling, defining its characteristic creaminess.
