CARTIZZE DRY<br />VALDOBBIADENE PROSECCO SUPERIORE DOCG CARTIZZE<br />The elite of Valdobbiadene<br /><br />Four seasons follow one another and one after the other guarantee the vines rest, sap, buds and much more, in a marvellous spectacle that only nature can repeat, year<br />after year.<br /><br />The centuries-old vine on the Cartizze hill, the top of the La Tordera production and of the Valdobbiadene DOCG appellation, is cared for by Pietro (the founder of the<br />Vettoretti family for more than 80 years) in the first person, just as his ancestors did before him.<br /><br />Cartizze Dry has an intense, unique and unforgettable flavour. The nourishing earth, the breeze that caresses the vines, the particular climate of this valley and Pietro's love<br />for this place that is so dear to him, are the ingredients that make this sweet, full-bodied and well-balanced sparkling wine rich in aroma and flavour.<br />Hints of apple, ripe pear and, among the flowers, those of lime, wisteria and almonds can be detected, expressing fruity and floral notes on the nose.
