"Nice clean peach and red apple on nose and palate. Not too sweet. Bit of a mould breaker - no pear flavours."
Le Contesse
Influenced in equal measures by Alpine breezes and the Adriatic Sea, the regions enviable position bestows it with a refreshingly cool climate, an abundance of sunny days and lush vegetation. The cool Prosecco di Conegliano-Valdobbiadene DOC, in the province of Treviso and near the alpine Belluno province, is a land of steep hills, generous rainfall, and cold winters. The Piave River, which helps to regulate the climate here, slices through the regions heart. Poor soil, a varying mix of marl, clayey limestone, marine sandstone and rough clay, draws out Proseccos creamy yet fresh peach notes, the wines signature aroma
