R.D.O. Brut Ponente 2021
Gold Medal
Variety: 100% Glera
Residual sugar: 4 g/l
Coming from a vineyard facing south-west, this wine encapsulates all the elegance and finesse of a unique terroir such as Ogliano, where its typical features are sealed by a slightly spicy hint that develops in crescendo thanks to its longevity.
The wine is made from hand-picked selected grapes, white vinified by the gravity method.
Prise de mousse and maturation take place over approximately three months, followed by further ageing for one month in bottle.
R.D.O. Extra Dry Levante 2021
Silver Medal
Variety: 100% Glera
Residual sugar: 13.5 g/l
Hails from a vineyard of 50-year-old vines, facing east and caressed by a constant breeze. The result is a wine whose powerful fruity aroma, structure and mineral touches are widely acknowledged.
Hand-picked, selected grapes are white vinified by the gravity method. Prise de mousse and maturation take place for approximately three months, followed by further ageing for one month in bottle.
Variety: 100% Glera
Residual sugar: 14 g/l
A well-balanced wine with a lingering finish in which the sugar content brings out its finesse. Once again we can appreciate the different essences of grapes from the Conegliano Valdobbiadene hills, selected and white vinified. Prise de mousse and maturation take place over approximately one month, followed by another month of ageing in bottle.
Prosecco DOC Rosé Brut Collezione 96
Silver Medal
Variety: 90% Glera – 10% Pinot Nero
Residual sugar: 8 g/l
This wine blends the elegance of Pinot Noir and the versatility of Glera. The Glera grapes are white vinified, and the Pinot Noir red vinified, after brief pre-fermentation maceration of 24 – 36 hours. The two base wines are then blended before prise de mousse, which takes place on selected yeasts for at least ninety days. The wine ages in bottle for a month before distribution.
Prosecco Treviso DOC Calmaggiore Brut
Bronze Medal
Variety: 100% Glera
Residual sugar: 10 g/l
Prosecco wine with unmistakable style, featuring outstanding elegance, versatility and finesse. Subtle on the palate, enveloping and fresh, it is vinified to the company’s best sparkling wine tradition that uses gravity in order to interfere as little as possible with the raw materials so that they represent and preserve the value of our land.

Merum 2022: 3 Hearts to Borgo Maragliano!

Congratulations to the whole staff of Borgo Maragliano!
SOME DETAILS ABOUT THIS WINE
Grapes: 100% Moscato Bianco di Canelli
Production: After harvesting, the ripe Moscato grapes undergo soft pressing.
The product obtained is chilled to 0°C to prevent fermentation. Each individual batch is filtered and put in a pressurised tank which retains the carbon dioxide and warms the product, which is still completely sugary, to a temp. of 15°C.
This promotes the fermentation process which is allowed to continue until an alcohol content of 5.5% vol. is reached.
The product, which is now Moscato d’Asti, is chilled to a temp. of 0 °C to block fermentation.
The wine is bottled at the beginning of November.
Tasting notes: A high-altitude Moscato, full-bodied and velvety with an intense bouquet featuring scents of candied fruit, acacia blossom and a musky background. The scent of “violet” is quite unique.
Gastronomic pairings: Served cool at a temperature of 10-12 °C in crystal glasses, it pairs delicately with desserts, fresh fruit and fruit salads.
