The Emissary Asolo Prosecco Superiore DOCG Brut
Pale straw-yellow prosecco with tiny, refined bubbles. The bouquet is rich with fruity and floral notes. Vibrant, zesty acidity and a subtle hint of sweetness balance gracefully on the palate. Round, gentle finish with lingering notes of fresh fruit. Made from only the finest selection of grapes grown in the ‘DOCG Asolo’ region (Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin). Elegant, rich and complex with extra fine, velvety bubbles. Prosecco made for celebrating. Terroir and Climate DOCG prosecco is grown in two regions, one of which is the area surrounding the medieval, UNESCO town of Asolo. This area is known as the "DOCG Colli Asolani" or "DOCG Asolo" prosecco region, and is famous for its perfect wine-making microclimate. The soil composition is rich and quick-draining, with large percentages of clay, resulting in a full bodied, very elegant spumante. Harvest and Winemaking In mid September, the finest Glera grapes from the Asolo region are selected by skilled, third-generation wine-makers. This region produces smaller yields to ensure the utmost quality. Planted on the hill of the Cornuda estate in 1948, is the oldest section of the vineyard. This area is dedicated to growing local varieties and ancient clones. Small quantities of these grapes are then blended with the Glera, to enrich this particular DOCG Prosecco with surprising fruity flavours. After the harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and go through primary fermentation to produce a still wine. The wine gains its bubbles during the secondary fermentation process of the Charmat method. Specification Grape variety: 85% Glera 15% Chardonnay Alcohol: 11% vol Residual sugar: 8 g/l (Brut) Total acidity: 6% Dry extract: 18% Pressure: 4,5 bar About The Vineyard Ed Smith set up on a journey all across Northern Italy to find the finest Prosecco, from the historic streets of Venice up through the lush green foothills of the Dolomite Mountains. After meeting dozens of producers and sampling hundreds of Proseccos, Ed Smith discovered a beautiful family-owned vineyard near the village of Cornuda in Veneto. Together they developed an outstanding Prosecco of consistent quality. The passion and experience that has been passed down the generations is put into every bottle.
