The general public is certainly unaware that around 1750 the vine already identified with the name of Prosecco was well known in Veneto, but not in the area that is now considered the most suitable and historical, Valdobbiadene and the province of Treviso, but in Monteberico, on the Colli Berici, a few km from the city of Vicenza and less the one hour from Verona center.
Duration: 2 minutes

In the afternoon we will immerse ourselves in a small village where we will visit the second family-run winery, where values such as genuineness and passion for the land are expressed in their excellent wines.
We'll learn and try the difference between Prosecco method and Classic method (the Champenoise method).
The key factor lies in the use of a secondary fermentation process.
Instead of moving the wine into the ageing step of the process, somebody using the classic method place their blended wine in bottles with a touch of yeast and some extra sugar. The bottle is sealed with a temporary plug & stored horizontally in a wine cellar. The wine then undergoes a second fermentation. Only this time, the temporary plug prevents the carbon dioxide the process creates from being released. Those gases stay in the wine, resulting in the creation of the bubbles that Champagne is so famous for.
All this facts and much more will be explained and comment and experience during our wine trip.
