Prosecco Superiore Valdobbiadene Brut

What kind of wine is it

Terredirai Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Brut, produced in Veneto by Terre di Rai, is a sparkling wine made from Glera grapes. Its production involves the long Charmat Method, which ensures a well-defined aromatic profile. In the glass, it displays a bright straw yellow colour with greenish highlights, enhanced by a very fine and persistent perlage, while the nose reveals notes of acacia flowers, apple, lemon and grapefruit. On the palate, it is balanced, savoury and smooth, with a clearly evident fruity component that makes it ideal as an aperitif or to accompany fish-based dishes.

Where does it come from

This Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore originates from the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, in Veneto. The vineyards are cultivated at an altitude between 350 and 400 metres, with an exposure that favours optimal ripening of the grapes. The vines take root in clay-based soils, a key element that gives the wine its typical savouriness. The training system is the double inverted Sylvoz, with a density of two thousand five hundred vines per hectare. These pedoclimatic conditions define a production style closely linked to the territory, capable of expressing freshness and precision.

How is it produced

The Glera grape harvest takes place between August and September. In the winery, vinification begins with a very gentle pressing, which allows only the free-run must to be extracted. The subsequent stay in autoclave for a period of thirty to sixty days defines a Brut profile, with a residual sugar content between 9 and 11 grams per litre. The absence of malolactic fermentation is a technical choice aimed at preserving the aromatic purity and ensuring marked drinkability. The acidity levels ultimately support the stability and gustatory balance of the sparkling wine, keeping the varietal characteristics intact.
