SUPERIORE DI CARTIZZE DRY
Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG
Prosecco’s elite is found in the Prosecco Superiore di Cartizze,
a small sandstone vineyard on the hill of Cartizze in S. Pietro
di Barbozza. The unique characteristics of this area allow for
later harvest periods with higher concetration of sugars.
Our Cartizze vineyard is the legacy of Nonno Bepi planted in
the 1920s. It’s heritage is unrivaled and the wine is a timeline
of the history of flavors of our land.
