🍇 100% Glera

Region: Veneto, Italy
Appellation: Prosecco

Farming/Vinification: Working alongside her father, Carolina Gatti began learning how to make wine when she was 3 years old on her family’s estate in the Piave region of Veneto, northeastern Italy. After getting a degree in oenology she began to experiment with wines made “in a scholastic way” with wines made “relying on instinct”. She returned home to collaborate with her father, since 2012 she has been running the estate; “even if the right arm is the father and sometimes the left my brother”. She uses biodynamic, traditional and low intervention methods in both the vineyards and cellar. Vines are 30+years in age, in clay soils. Made in the traditional Col Fondo method ; light maceration on the skins, spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts on the lees in cement vats without temperature control. Second fermentation in the bottle on the lees using frozen juice from the first pressing. Unfined, unfiltered.
