Filacorta
Prosecco D.O.C. Extra Dry - Millesimato
The name Filacorta has its origins from the techniques used for the plantation of the vineyards, because from a certain historical period the vineyard started to be placed in row.
The reasons which have brought our family and all the Venetian territory to plant short row have found their roots in our history and in the traditions of the farming families.
Families in the past were composed of many children and very often after the death of the parents the lands had to be shared between the heirs. With the passing of the time, what were big lands started to be shared in smaller and smaller lands between the heirs. And from this small lands characterized by short row of vines has born the line of Spumanti Filacorta, wines marked by selected blends of grapes which has been cultivated in different vineyards.
These selected blends give particular notes and scents to our wines which, through the different sparkling processes, are then transformed in an unique product, with a fine and elegant perlage, suitable for all occasions.
