Palate

It is a velvety sparkling wine, smooth and balanced, which allows everyone to know, through the taste, what our Rive di Guia can offer to us.

Growing Conditions

A few days before the harvest, Angelo and Desiderio went through all the vineyards and decided what would be the grapes set for the cuvée of this Valdobbiadene DOCG. During the harvest 2020 this work was done exclusively between the vineyards of the village of Guia, bringing the selection to a new level, and making this wine, if possible, even more special. The grapes are all selected from vineyards in the village where our winery is based.

Winemaking

Our Dry “Desiderio”, from the 2020 harvest, becomes a Rive di Guia. A change that is part of our tradition, a decision taken to celebrate even better the unique characteristics of the territory that hosts us. We produce this Valdobbiadene DOCG since 1998: it was a choice made to celebrate the first 30 years of the winery, and, at that time, we decided to dedicate it to Angelo’s father: Desiderio.

The residual sugar is about 20 grams per litre, to give it a softer and delicate note.

To taste it in all its integrity, it should be consumed within 15/18 months from the date of bottling. To know when our Valdobbiadene DOCG has been bottled, just photograph
the QR-CODE that is located on the back label of our bottle, or connect to the site info.bortolinangelo.com, and insert the printed lot number.
