Col Fondo Prosecco

"A real Prosecco" DOC Veneto, Italy
Col Fondo Prosecco
Featured Product Image Product Gallery Image

This Prosecco is made in the same way it has been in Veneto long before the advent of Oenological tools and substances that are responsible for the saccharine-sweet sparkling wine found in large supermarket chains. The method is called "col fondo", where the traditional variety used for Prosecco, the Glera, is naturally fermented and is bottled unfiltered. The bubbles are created in a second fermentation (or re-fermentation) in the bottle itself. You can expect a cloudy wine, light with small and pleasurable bubbles. Floral aromas with notes of citrus lead to a dry sip of ripe pear, yeast and baked bread. The finish is a wondrous combination of ever so slight salinity and a touch of lemon zest.
You can gently tilt the bottle a few times before opening in order to mix the lees at the bottom of the bottle. It will add an element of juiciness and a buttery spice finish.

INFO ON GROWER
Casa Belfi, owned by Maurizio Donadi, is a project that saw the recovery of old family vineyards in Veneto and cultivating them in an Organic, healthy way. Maurizio decided to introduce his winery with a "col fondo", a naturally made sparkling wine better known as Prosecco. Col fondo, also known as "Petnat" or the ancestral method is how Prosecco wine was used to be made - unfiltered, unfined and without any additions.The result is a dryer Prosecco with a cloudy appearance and a more complicated palate. Casa Belfi also produces red wines, sparkling red wines and white wines in Amphora. The focus of the winery is making wines that reliably showcase the terroir and are made healthily, without any additives whatsoever.  A member of Vinnatur.
