Morrisons The Best Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG, 75 cl

Product Information

The main attributes of the property relate to the distinctive landscape, where nature and human history have shaped and been shaped by an adapted and specific system for viticulture and land use. Despite many changes, the attributes demonstrate authenticity, and are documented through sources such as inventories and cadasters, historical and religious paintings, and historical documents that demonstrate the introduction of the ciglioni, and the operation of the sharecropping system from the first land registries in the 18th century. Come per l'altra DOCG ( Asolo Prosecco), il Conegliano Valdobbiadene - Prosecco DOCG non va confuso con del generico Prosecco DOC né tanto meno con altri vini IGT a base di uva glera.

A lovely small city in the Veneto region is famous as the center of Prosecco. This place was renewed in the 12th century when the nobles decided to build the caste. They also built new streets and a picturesque palace. a b c d e f g Cortese, Amy (26 December 2008). "Italian Makers of Prosecco Seek Recognition". The New York Times . Retrieved 28 December 2008. Some winemakers are reviving the traditional Prosecco Col Fondo, refermented in the bottle but not disgorged, as the wines are left on their lees. This yeasty residue leaves fine sediment in the bottom of the bottle ( fondo in Italian) that imparts more complexity, texture and flavour. They can be served either clear or cloudy. These wines are labelled Conegliano Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG, or Asolo Superiore DOCG. Col Fondo generally has a lower Frizzante-style 250 kilopascals (2.5 bars) of pressure.

This area is rarely talked about but it’s position just below the Piave river (a major dividing line during World War II) makes it a special Italian choice. There are two hilly spots that produce great quality Glera (along with some other very rare grapes) and make great-tasting Prosecco. Most Prosecco, whether DOC or DOCG, is made as Spumante sparkling wine or Frizzante (semi-sparkling). Prosecco DOC Spumante is the most famous and popular variety, with longer-lasting bubbles. Prosecco DOC Frizzante has bubbles that linger for a shorter time. A small proportion is made as Tranquillo (still wine), with no bubbles. [5] Tranquillo amounts to only about 5% of production, [21] and this wine is rarely exported. L'area vitivinicola delle colline di Conegliano e Valdobbiadene conta più di 700 aziende agricole e cantine, tra le quali circa 150 sono riunite nel Consorzio per la Tutela del Conegliano-Valdobbiadene DOCG [4].

After the process has completed, the wine rests (usually for about 3 months), then it’s filtered, dosed (with expedition liqueur), bottled, and sent to a grocery store near you!

In 1754, the spelling Prosecco appears for the first time in the book Il Roccolo Ditirambo, written by Aureliano Acanti in Novoledo, in the municipality of Villaverla located in the Province of Vicenza. The wine was then known by the local Slovene-speaking population as Prosegker or Prosekar and was grown on the Adriatic coast near the villages of Contovello, Prosecco, Santa Croce and the former Roman villa town Barcola.

A harvest of emotions

Depending on their sweetness, in accordance with the EU Sweetness of wine Regulations for Terms used to indicate sweetness of sparkling wine, Proseccos are labelled "Brut" (up to 12grams per litre of residual sugar), "Extra Dry" (12–17 g/L) or "Dry" (17–32 g/L). [28] Extra-Dry has been the dominant style made, but the amount of Brut is now increasing.
