PROSECCO DI VALDOBBIADENE SUP. BRUT MAGNUM NINO FRANCO

Cantine Franco was born in Valdobbiadene in 1919 thanks to Antonio, who has aimed from the very beginning to create a quality product. With his son Nino, who continues his father's tradition, the company grows, consolidates and expands. But it is Primo, first with his father Nino and then alone, who gives the cellar a modern setting. From the moment he joins the company, after graduating from the Conegliano Veneto school of oenology, Primo focuses his work on a precise quality model learned during his numerous travel and study experiences. At the beginning of the nineties, supported by the belief that a good wine is obtained by controlling production from the beginning, Primo takes over a vineyard where he experiments with new planting techniques and the use of old clones. In the meantime, he continues his close collaboration with local winemakers in order to develop his idea of ​​enhancing this grape variety.

The vinification technique develops through crushing, de-stemming, cooling of the must and fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Subsequent refermentation in autoclave. After bottling, it stays in the cellar for 30 days. Charmat method.

This Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore Brut is made by the Nino Franco winery starting from the pure use of Glera, a reference vine widely cultivated within the Veneto terroir, specifically in the medium and high hill vineyards of the classic production area. It has a bright straw yellow color. The nose reveals hints of flowers, apple, pear and citrus. At the sip you can savor hints of flowers, apple, pear and citrus fruits, which are found in the mouth giving sensations of flavor and freshness. Fine and persistent bubble. Very creamy.

The best companion for a thirst-quenching aperitif or for appetizers and first courses based on fish, vegetables and white meats.
