The Wine

The Prosecco Superiore Valdobbiadene brut of the Ciodet winery is the driest version of the Valdobbiadene Docg line, where the flavour blends in complete harmony with the reduced sugar residue. This prosecco is dedicated to the father Labano, the first of the family to start the production of sparkling wine, which is now appreciated in Italy and the rest of the world

THE WINEMAKING

The harvest is strictly manual, and only the selected grapes are brought to the cellar for winemaking. Soft pressing of the grapes begins to extract only the free-run must that comes from the heart of the grape; decanting follows; in this phase, the cloudy must rests cold in steel tanks for about 12-15 hours. The fermentation then proceeds, and after about 20 days, the base wine is obtained. Base wine that is expertly assembled and moved in an autoclave for a minimum of 30 days to create the sparking.

THE TASTING

Straw yellow with a fine and persistent perlage and a creamy mousse; the aroma is fresh and fruity with pleasant hints of apple, pear and white peach that leave room for notes of acacia flowers. Fresh on the palate, an elegant and harmonious prosecco with good persistence.

FOOD PAIRINGS

It is excellent as an aperitif, and it goes well with fish. A must try with shellfish.
