Valdobbiadene Docg
Follalba Superiore di Cartizze Brut
This is the softest and sugary representation of our terroir. The Superiore di Cartizze Brut Follalba is a combination of freshness and roundness, without exceeding in sweetness. It pairs perfectly the seafood cuisine of Venice region: from shellfish to the typical dishes of the upper Adriatic coast.
TASTING NOTES
Straw-yellow color, fine and persistent bubble, creamy foam. The nose presents a good complexity, rich of fruity aromas like golden apple, Kaiser pear and white peach, followed by more floral notes like wisteria and acacia. The mouthfeel is consistent, soft but balanced, deep and very persistent, with a certain length and great personality
