Il Colle, Extra Dry Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore, Treviso, Veneto, Italy NV

Il Colle is crafted from the revered hills of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, the historic heartland of Prosecco Superiore. This region, recognized for its steep slopes, varied exposures, and complex soils, produces some of Italy’s most refined and expressive Glera. The Extra Dry style offers a perfect balance of aromatic fruitiness, palate richness, and refreshing acidity—making it a versatile and crowd-pleasing sparkling wine.

• WINEMAKER: Fabio Ceschin

• FARMING: Sustainable

• VARIETY: 100% Glera

• TERROIR: Sourced from hillside vineyards in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene area of Treviso in Veneto, where steep gradients and a mosaic of clay, limestone, and gravel soils contribute tension, aromatic lift, and structural depth.

• VINIFICATION: Charmat (tank) method, with primary fermentation followed by secondary fermentation in pressurized stainless-steel tanks to build fine, persistent bubbles.

• AGING: Rested on lees in tank after secondary fermentation to enhance mouthfeel and complexity before bottling.

• TASTING NOTES: Refreshing aromas of green apple, white peach, and citrus blossoms, layered with subtle hints of almond and wild herbs. The palate is lively yet creamy, with bright acidity, soft mousse, and a gently off-dry finish that balances fruit and freshness.

• FOOD PAIRINGS: Perfect as an aperitif; also lovely with fresh salads, soft cheeses, prosciutto and melon, seafood crudi, risotto, or light pasta dishes.
