Grape Varieties
100% Prosecco
Winery
In early 2004, after a couple of years searching for the right Prosecco, we decided we would make one of our own. We teamed up with Conegliano born Andrea Morlin and consultant New Zealand winemaker Matt Thomson to work with a grower friend of Andrea's who has a modern, compact winery and 12 hectares of vineyard. Prosecco is an indigenous variety that has been grown on the hills around Conegliano and Valdobbiadene since the beginning of the 1800s. It was only in 1969, however, that the Conegliano and Valdobbiadene zone was acknowledged as the only area where Prosecco DOC could be produced.

Tasting Note
The ‘frizzante‘ IGT Colli Trevigiani, is closed with a crown cap. It is soft,scented and grapey, with delicious lightness and good length. Because of the quality of the fruit, the wine has a lower level of residual sugar than is usual with Prosecco, so it is drier and more drinkable as a result. Perfect as an aperitif, it is best served at a temperature of 6-8°C.
