Description
What kind of wine it is
Gabe Prosecco Chicchirichi Extra Dry is a white sparkling wine created from a harmonious blend of Glera and Pinot Bianco grapes. This Prosecco Treviso displays a straw yellow colour, enhanced by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers a clear fruity bouquet, while on the palate it is balanced, rounded and pleasantly aromatic. Thanks to its pronounced freshness, it is the ideal companion for an aperitif, perfect for pairing with delicate starters and vegetable-based dishes.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine originates in Veneto, in the heart of the Treviso area, on the renowned Cartizze Hills. The vineyards, situated at around one hundred metres above sea level, are rooted in clay soils, which are essential for giving the wine a soft structure and an intense fruity expression. The vines are trained using the double arched cane system to ensure optimal quality. Thanks to the care of the Gabe winery, the vineyards make the most of this dedicated environment, offering a linear drinkability and an authentic territorial character.
How it is produced
Production begins with the harvest at the end of September, followed by static decantation of the must. The primary fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature with selected yeasts. The wine matures for at least three months on fine lees, gaining greater roundness. The prise de mousse follows the Charmat Method, with a secondary fermentation in large tanks for a period of thirty to forty days. This technique enhances the freshness of the aromas and ensures a balanced taste texture, capable of highlighting every nuance of the blend.
History and Curiosities
Born among the hills of Cartizze from the intuition of Gabriella Benedetta Vettoretti, the GABE project embodies a modern oenological vision. Through the Tenute and Selezioni ranges, the company harnesses valuable technical expertise to create sparkling wines with a unique character. The elegant label, featuring an anthropomorphic cockerel, reveals an intriguing anecdote: just as the proud animal rules the yard, so the Chicchirichì dominates the scene. This Prosecco DOC Treviso stands as the undisputed sovereign of conviviality, crowned by its cork stopper.

After working in the family winery, I decided to undertake a new professional journey which allows me to share my know-how and my experience with other wineries and customers, bringing my ideas about wine to fruition. In this journey, Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG is still protagonist. It is a journey of new horizons, lands, people and products. This is why GABE had two souls: TENUTE and SELEZIONI." Read more
