R.D.O. Ponente 2022 Brut: Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Rive di Ogliano DOCG

This Prosecco has a very elegant straw yellow colour with bright greenish-golden hints and a very fine and lingering perlage. The taste is fresh with hints of bergamot, white mulberry, peaches, melons and acacia blossoms. There is a rich mix of aromas that is completed by lemon balm, thyme, mint and sage. The finish is long and well-balanced and closes with a nuance of lime, ginger and spices. The variety is 100% Glera .

R.D.O. Ponente Brut comes from a single vineyard facing south-west. This wine encapsulates all the finesse and elegance of a unique terroir such as Ogliano.

Vinibuoni Crown for Masottina

In 2009, when Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore was elevated to DOCG a new indication was introduced:  Rive. Which identifies on the label the municipality where the grapes are grown. Ogliano is one of the 43 Rive where Terre di Ogliano and the Dal Bianco family cultivate almost 20% of the entire vine planted area.  The Ogliano landscape is the only Conegliano Valdobbiadene area with a glacial origin and this means morenic soil rich and fertile and water that easily penetrates to ensure a natural reserve that is useful in dry periods. Wines from Ogliano are well-rounded, intense and persistent.
