About R.D.O. Levante: A Top-Tier Prosecco from a Single Vineyard
The Masottina R.D.O. Levante Extra Dry is an exceptional Prosecco Superiore DOCG and a true flagship of the winery. The name tells its story: R.D.O. stands for Rive di Ogliano, a specific ‘cru’ or single-vineyard site within the renowned Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco region.
This wine is unique due to its specific origin:
- Vineyard: Levante (East) indicates the eastern exposure where the vines benefit from the gentle morning sun.
- Vines: The grapes are sourced from vines over 60 years old, which provides depth and complexity.
- Vintage: It is a Millesimato, meaning all Glera grapes come from a single, outstanding harvest year.
Tasting Notes & Characteristics
- Color & Perlage: A bright, straw-yellow color with a lively, fine, and persistent bubble.
- Aroma: Rich and complex with floral scents (linden, acacia) intertwined with fruity notes of pear, apple, bergamot, and grapefruit.
- Flavor Profile: The taste is lively, saline, and perfectly structured. Flavors of quince and lemon lead to a long, pleasant finish with a subtle, perfectly balanced sweetness.
Vineyard & Winemaking: The Art of Purity
The grapes are harvested by hand and meticulously selected. Masottina employs a unique gravity-fed vinification method. This gentle approach protects the grapes and guarantees the purity of the flavors in the final wine.
