Description
This delicious Prosecco Superiore Cru Millesimato Dry DOCG is made from 85% Glera, 10% Bianchetta (also known as Arneis) and 5% Perera grapes. The Italian winery Nani Rizzi makes this Prosecco by combining traditional methods with new innovative techniques. The beautiful vineyards in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene region are located at an altitude of 250-300 meters. The vinification of the grapes, after they have been harvested exclusively and very carefully by hand, is carried out with a light cold maceration to obtain a high quality product. Nani Rizzi selects the best grapes of the year for this Prosecco.
The Prosecco Superiore Cru Millesimato Brut, with its beautiful pale straw-yellow color, has an intense and refined taste with beautiful fruity notes of ripe apple and yellow-fleshed peach with a delicious light floral aroma of acacia flowers and rose petals. All this makes this Prosecco extremely suitable as an aperitif and also delicious with fish starters. This prosecco has a beautiful perlage with refined bubbles and is deliciously minerally dry with only 8 g residual sugar. In addition to the great content, the presentation of this Prosecco Superiore Cru Millesimato Brut is also a showpiece in itself.

Nani Rizzi is a beautiful family business from Valdobbiadene, located in the Italian province of Treviso. Nani Rizzi winery has been growing and producing high quality Prosecco for over 100 years, with grapes from the beautiful hills of Guia. All Nani Rizzi wines originate from the valuable Glera grape, which comes from the famous and picturesque hills of Valdobbiadene. The Glera grape is of very high quality and also represents the deep-rooted and strong roots of the history, family and terroir of winery Nani Rizzi. By combining the use of traditional methods with new innovative techniques, the grapes are transformed into excellent, highly qualified products. Nani Rizzi therefore has a wide range of sparkling wine, which more than represents the excellent quality of the terroir. There is a subdivision of 3 different product types: Cru Nani Rizzi, Docg Nani Rizzi and Doc Nani Rizzi.
The winery was founded by Giovanni who was nicknamed “Nani Rizzi”. Later the winery was greatly expanded by his son Ergi, after which it was taken over again by grandson Denis Spagnol.
