Description
Nani Rizzi Winery and the Treviso Region
Nani Rizzi is a renowned family business that has been active for generations in the heart of the Prosecco area: the hills of Treviso in Veneto, Northern Italy. Led by Denis Spagnol, the house continues the tradition of his father Giovanni "Nani" Rizzi, with a focus on authenticity, quality and respect for nature. The winery is located at 250 to 300 meters above sea level, where the temperate climate and chalky soils provide ideal conditions for the Glera grape, the basis of Prosecco.
Location, grapes and harvest for Nani Rizzi Prosecco Extra Dry
The vineyards are located on the sun-drenched slopes around Valdobbiadene and Conegliano, within the DOC zone. This prosecco is made from 100% Glera, from hand-picked grapes with a yield of 180 q/ha. The vines are trained using the traditional Cappuccina and Sylvoz methods. These techniques ensure optimum aeration of the bunches and a controlled yield, which benefits the quality.
Vinification and sparkling using the Charmat method
The vinification follows a combination of traditional practices and modern technology. After the manual harvest, the grapes are softly pressed. The alcoholic fermentation takes place under controlled temperatures to preserve the fruit aromas. The second fermentation, which produces the mousse, takes place according to the Charmat method in stainless steel tanks. This results in a refined effervescence, fresh aromas and a balanced style. The wine has an alcohol content of 11.5%.
Color, aroma and taste of Nani Rizzi Prosecco Extra Dry
This prosecco shows a bright, pale straw yellow colour. On the nose it opens with intense aromas of ripe apple and yellow flesh, such as peach. The bouquet is pure and inviting. On the palate the wine is lively, with a fine mousse that offers a pleasant freshness and texture. The balance between acidity and mild residual sweetness makes the wine extremely accessible and refreshing, with an elegant and clean finish.

Wine and food pairings with Nani Rizzi Prosecco Extra Dry
- Rocket salad with pear, walnuts and gorgonzola – The acidity of the wine refreshes and balances the creamy, salty character of the cheese and the sweetness of the pear.
- Shrimp with lime and coriander – The fresh mousse and fruity notes support the citrus and spicy nuances of the dish.
- Vitello tonnato with capers and olive oil – The soft texture of the veal and the salty notes of the tuna sauce go perfectly with the liveliness of the prosecco.
- Mini quiches with goat cheese and courgette – The airy texture of the dish complements the sparkling character of the wine beautifully.
- Tuna tartare with avocado and sesame – Rich, creamy elements are nicely broken up by the fresh acidity of the prosecco.

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. Denis still cultivates and produces according to the time-honored traditions of his father and grandfather with equally great love and care for the vines and the area.
Nanio Rizzi is one of the few wineries to carry the Prosecco Superiore label. You have Prosecco and Prosecco Superiore and that makes a world of difference. To be able to feed Prosecco Superiore DOCG, strict rules must be met:
- The grapes must come from the Conegliano Valdobbiadene region and the vinification must also take place here. The following municipalities fall within this region: Conegliano, San Vendemiano, Colle Umberto, Vittorio Veneto, Tarzo, Cison di Valmarino, San Pietro di Feletto, Refrontolo, Susegana, Pieve di Soligo, Farra di Soligo, Follina, Miane, Vidor and Valdobbiadene.
- The minimum amount of Glera (the official name of the prosecco grape) in the wine must be at least 85%.
- The maximum yield per hectare is 135 hectoliters per hectare. This is substantially higher with the regular Proseccos
- The maximum amount of juice compared to the picked fruit is 70%. So from 100 kilos of grapes, a maximum of 70 liters of juice can be squeezed.
- Bottling must take place in the province of Treviso.
Only bottles produced according to the stated rules are allowed to carry this label on the bottle, which is usually taped to the back of the capsule. The label also often mentions 'DOCG' or is written in full: Denominazione de Origine Controllata et Garantita. Also the terms 'Prosecco Superiore' and 'Valdobbiadene' and 'Conegliano' may only be used with DOCG proseccos. Enough way to see if the prosecco you have before you meets the strict DOCG requirements!
