Wine Details

BiancaVigna Prosecco DOC Brut

The vineyards for the Prosecco Brut are located just across the border of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG, where the soil is particularly suitable for the vines to develop deep roots, giving the wines more structure, elegance and finesse. This Prosecco DOC is a well-balanced, fresh and bright wine, whose medium-body and clean finish make it a refreshing summer beverage or ideal choice for an aperitif. Aromas and flavors of sliced green apples and pears are complimented by a more mineral note of slate.

Recent press reviews

BiancaVigna Prosecco DOC Brut NV

Vinous Media (91)- "The NV Prosecco Brut is spicy and wickedly fresh, with tart apple and chamomile complemented by notes of ginger and smoky minerals. It’s smooth with a creamy bead of delicate bubbles contrasted by nervous acids, coming across as quite savory and refined. Energy remains high, as the palate aches with residual tension while resonating on sweet and sour citrus and dried apricots. This beautiful and elegant expression of Prosecco is a pleasure to taste."

Falstaff Magazine (90 )- "Luminous, brilliant green-yellow with persistent perlage. On the nose it has a delicate expression of green apple and citrus. On the palate with fine fruity sweetness, opens straightforward, drinks well. "

James Suckling (90)- "A dry and bright prosecco with aromas and flavors of sliced green apples and pears. Some slate, too. Medium body and a clean finish. Disgorged in 2017. Drink now."
