Gregoletto Sui Lieviti Prosecco 2022

100% Glera

Hillside vineyards in Premaor, Miane, Refrontolo, and Rua Feletto (within the DOCG Conegliano - Valdobbiadene).  Primary fermentation in stainless steel, then bottled by hand along with a small amount of natural liqueur made from their own grapes that triggers fermentation in bottle.  The secondary fermentation continues in bottle over an indeterminable amount of time, in fact each bottle is slightly different. Vino vivente! Living wine!  Aged in bottle for 60 days before release

Wine is not labeled as a DOCG because the Gregolettos choose to use a crown cap, which is not permitted, although they find it is by far the best closure for producing this style of wine with a secondary fermentation in bottle

Crisp, bone-dry, vibrant, and mineral-driven with notes of fresh green apples, lime, and stones, accompanied by a faint, bready yeast complexity. 11.5% ABV
