“…Prosecco is a wine that can evolve over time…”

Masottina decided to produce Le Rive in 2009, when the new denomination was included in the regulations. Now there are 43 Le Rive, known as ‘Additional Geographical Units.’ In this respect, Vice President Federico dal Bianco says: “We were one of the first to start production of Rive. We are delighted by this recognition, which goes to the Masottina team, our oenoligist, my father Adriano and all the men and women to work in our company, from the vineyards to distribution.  We are proud that a Prosecco has received an award two years after its vintage, because this is in line with the project to valorise the past vintages of Prosecco pursued by Masottina. It is a project we are developing in Italy to demonstrate that Prosecco is a wine that can evolve over time.”
