A more distinctive expression of Prosecco from Bottega’s Il Vino dei Poeti collection, produced from Glera grown on the steep Rive of Col San Martino within Conegliano Valdobbiadene. These hillside vineyards are worked largely by hand, with the slope and exposure helping the grapes achieve excellent ripeness while retaining freshness. The result is refined and expressive, with generous orchard fruit, delicate florals and fine, persistent bubbles.
The term ‘Rive’ indicates the vineyards located in small towns or hamlets on steep terrains, dedicated to growing grapes with high quality and typicality. Here, vines are completely managed by hand, as the steep slopes make all operations difficult. For this wine, the Glera grapes are harvested from a limited area, among the most exclusive locations for production; ‘Rive’ di Guia.
Tasting Notes: Bright straw yellow with a fine, persistent perlage. White peach and pear are joined by floral notes of wisteria and acacia. Fresh and balanced on the palate, with ripe fruit, a fine mousse and a clean, elegant finish.
Food Pairing: Excellent as an aperitivo and especially good with seafood: try with our Vongole sauce and Spaghetti, grilled fish, delicate antipasti or fresh cheeses.
ABV: 11.5%
Grape Blend: Glera
Region: Veneto
Bottega’s Il Vino dei Poeti range celebrates the traditional wine-growing landscape of north-eastern Italy. The Rive designation identifies particularly steep, high-quality hillside vineyards within Conegliano Valdobbiadene, where vineyard work is demanding and largely manual. This wine comes from the Rive of Col San Martino, an area with a long history of Glera cultivation.
