Zardetto Prosecco Superiore Extra Dry
Wine Description
Made from perfectly ripe hand-harvested Glera grapes from the hilly part of Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG. The first fermentation with selected yeasts develops aromas of apricots pears and wild flowers. These intense, fruity aromas are preserved through the second fermentation, which takes place in large temperature controlled stainless steel containers.
