Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore Brut 'Strada di Guia 109' Foss Marai

Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore Brut "Strada di Guia 109" from the Foss Marai winery is a creamy, fresh and enveloping sparkling wine produced in Valdobbiadene, in the province of Treviso, Veneto. This label is made from pure Glera grapes from vines located at an altitude of about 300 meters on Cartizze hill, which enjoys exceptional pedoclimatic conditions. The vines are trained using the espalier method on soils characterized by rocky soils that push the vines to very low yields, helping to increase their quality. The winery is a family-run business, owning about 60 hectares under vine, which has decided to focus firmly on quality and elegance, but also on fidelity to the characteristics of a famous territory with a vocation for the production of sparkling wines, thus gaining a leading role on the Italian and international scene.

Foss Marai's "Strada di Guia 109" Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore Brut is made from carefully selected grapes harvested by hand at the time of their perfect ripeness. The bunches brought to the winery undergo soft pressing, and then alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel containers. At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the base wine is added yeasts for frothing and transferred into pressurized stainless steel autoclaves in which refermentation takes place, according to the Charmat method, at a controlled temperature of 13 °C for a period of about 3 months and in any case until the desired perlage and sugar level is reached.

The Valdobbiadene Prosecco "Strada di Guia 109" Superiore Brut from Foss Marai presents itself to the eye with a beautiful, luminous straw yellow colour with a pretty fine and persistent perlage. Intense aromas of white fruit appear on the nose, including pear, apple and peach, with floral notes of freshly picked flowers and acacia blossoms, then veer into slight citrusy hints. In the mouth, it is creamy, fruity, dry and vertical, characterized by a beautiful freshness and a very clean finish. This from the Foss Marai winery is a well-balanced and harmonious Prosecco that is very pleasant to drink.
