Cielo e Terra, Casa Defra, Prosecco DOC, Rosé, Italy, 2023

Producer Profile

Cielo e Terra is a joint venture between two families, Cielo, who have been making wine for over a century in Veneto and Puglia, and the Cantina Sociale Colli Berici.

Drawing on the Colli Berici’s vineyard resources, combined with the Cielo family’s winemaking skills, their partnership consistently produces wines which are fantastic value for money from both indigenous and international varieties.

Viticulture

A manual grape harvest from vineyards across the Prosecco DOC area of North East Italy.

Winemaking

Soft pressing and fermentation via the Charmat method without maceration at a controlled temperature below 20 ° C, with selected yeasts. The second fermentation takes place under automatic temperature control to obtain a slow and consistent refermentation for at least 60 days. In this way, in addition to the increased aroma profile, a persistent and very pleasant mousse is obtained.

Oak Ageing

No oak ageing

Tasting Note

Pale rosé in colour, this elegant Prosecco has a strawberry and cherry bouquet. Fresh, balanced and peristent on the palate with a fine mousse.

Food Matching

An elegant aperitif, for sipping at the barbecue but pairs well with lightly flavoured dishes.
