Nose
Impressions of white peach and apricot, with a hint of apple.
Palate
Accompany a silky and smooth palate; a pleasant note of glazed almond on the aftertaste takes you to a lingering finish.
Growing Conditions
Cartizze is the most prestigeous cru in Valdobbiadene Prosecco D.O.C.G. area, a very small surface (just about 270 acres only) made by vineyards lying between the steepest hills of San Pietro di Barbozza and Santo Stefano in Valdobbiadene county. In our Cartizze vineyards there’s a perfect combination of exposition, soil, with moraines, sandstone and clays which allows a rapid drainage of rain water, and a natural protection from dangerous hailstorm, due to an incredibly high slope of the hill. All these factors give a unique and truly sumptuous sparkling.

Food Pairing
Our Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore di Cartizze D.O.C.G. is the perfect conclusion of an important dinner, with desserts, from short pastries to fruit tarts and sweetened “focaccia” (flat soft bread); it’s an excellent match with mild double or triple cream cheese, it also surprisingly pairs with shell fish, such as lobster, crab and sea scallops.
