When speaking of Conegliano - Valdobbiadene, Prosecco and Spumante have been synonyms for more than a century. On the other hand, it was the first sparkling wine in Italy to get the registered designation of origin (DOC). The Brut typology is the most recent, most modern one, the one that has been overwhelmingly successful also in the foreign markets. The charm of this product is contained in the sweet and inviting scents richer in sensations of citrus fruit and fresh flowers, accompanied by a lively verve experienced when tasted. Its fine and persistent perlage, an evident sign of patient, painstaking refermentation, ensures that its flavour and clean palate are exalted. All of this combined with the lowest percentage of residual sugar compared to the Extra Dry version makes it a wine with a plus when combined with food.
