Rezzadore, Prosecco, Monte Consiglio

The Rezzadore family emphasizes a site-driven approach to Glera, focusing on low-yield viticulture within the Colli Berici to produce a Prosecco of uncommon structural integrity. Utilizing organic farming and manual harvests, the estate ensures that the fruit retains its phenolic ripeness before undergoing a slow fermentation with extended lees contact to build textural weight. The Monte Consiglio vineyard is situated on a mix of volcanic basalt and calcareous clay, a soil composition that dictates the wine’s mineral austerity and firm backbone. This bottling is defined by a fine-grained mousse and significant mid-palate density, presenting an architectural tension and focus rarely found in the category. The resulting profile is characterized by a dry, saline-driven finish and high-toned acidity that directly reflects the cooling influences of its high-altitude site.
