Description
This is a very special dry style 'Asolo DOCG' Prosecco. Asolo is renowned for being the growing area best suited to producing food friendly broad flavoured Prosecco and this example is exactly that. Very pale straw yellow and fine, persistent bubbles, intensely fruity aroma with clear hints of granny smith, and an elegant floral nose reminiscent of acacia flowers. Fresh and soft to the palate, and full of flavour, it has a long fruity finish.

Vinification
Whole grapes are put into the pneumatic press for soft pressing and the resulting must, after a first racking, is put into controlled temperature tanks where it remains until it is used for the production of the sparkling wine. The must with added yeast cultures selected by Villa Sandi is then put into vessels where fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 15-16°C to enhance all the harvest fragrances. Upon reaching the required alcohol and sugar content fermentation is stopped by refrigeration. After a short settling period the sparkling wine is ready for bottling.
