Description
What kind of wine it is
The Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore di Cartizze Dry by Bortolomiol is a white sparkling wine made from Glera grapes. In the glass, it displays a bright straw yellow colour, enlivened by a fine and persistent perlage that introduces an intense aromatic profile. It reveals clear notes of white peach, ripe pear, acacia flowers, citrus fruits and hazelnut. On the palate, it offers a creamy and enveloping sip, where the natural sweetness of the Dry dosage finds impeccable balance with lively freshness, leading to a harmonious and satisfying finish.
Where it comes from
The grapes are grown on the renowned Cartizze hill, a historic area of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore di Cartizze denomination. The hillside vineyards benefit from optimal sun exposure, essential for the ripening of Glera and its typical aromatic definition. The pronounced minerality of the soils lends precision to the sip and supports the long fruity persistence. The management of the rows follows the principles of heroic viticulture, using the cappuccina training system. The agricultural cycle concludes with a rigorous manual harvest of the bunches, carried out between mid and late September.
How it is produced
The process begins with gentle pressing and white vinification, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature to preserve the original aromas. The prise de mousse in autoclave is carried out using the Charmat-Martinotti method for about a month, creating a refined effervescence. This is followed by maturation in steel on the lees for one to three months, an essential phase to stabilise the flavour profile and the typical creamy texture. This meticulous process ensures a precise balance between residual sugar and total acidity, guaranteeing the typical elegance of this selection.
History and Curiosities
Since 1949, the historic company Bortolomiol, led by an all-female management team, has produced the Cartizze DOCG, an outstanding wine made in Valdobbiadene in the true “Grand Cru” of the region.
