Cielo e Terra Casa Defra Prosecco Frizzante DOC NV 75 cl

Product Information

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.

Soft pressing and fermentation with maceration at a controlled temperature no lower than 20 ° C and in the presence of yeasts. Storage in steel tanks at a controlled temperature always below 20 ° C trying to protect the wine with nitrogen to avoid the oxidative effect of the air. Casa Defra's Rose Prosecco is the result of a joint venture between two families titled Cielo e Terra: A combination of Cielo winemaking experience and Colli Berici premium vineyards. Glera and Pinot Nero grapes are manually harvested around the Prosecco DOC region, before soft pressing and controlled fermentation via the Charmat method without maceration. Pale rosé in colour, this elegant Prosecco has a strawberry and cherry bouquet. Fresh, balanced and peristent on the palate with a fine mousse. And while these rosatos had plenty of ripe berry flavours, these weren’t too sweet, ensuring they were pretty, fruity, and refreshing. Fiol and Della Vite proved particularly fine examples, making a pleasing end to the UK’s largest professional tasting of Prosecco. Winery Make their day with a bottle of Prosecco by treating them to something spectacular from our range of birthday gifts below.

Finally, we had a raft of rosés, as we assessed the quality of producers now making pink Prosecco, since the authorisation to do so in the DOC came in late 2020. These proved to be a delicious addition to the category, with the cherry fruit from the Pinot Noir red wine used to give these Proseccos their colour – usually a pale salmon pink – adding a complementary characteristic to the base wines made with the Glera grape.

Then there was further variation with source area, with, in particular, the Proseccos from all the DOCGs proving especially fine. Among these, it was the samples from the smaller area of Asolo that stood out for their powerful aromatics and ripe yellow fruit flavours, compensating for the fact that these wines tend to be a bit drier than their equivalents from Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. Cielo e Terra is a joint venture between two families, Cielo, who have been making wine in the Veneto for over a century, 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 varietals.

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. The result is an elegant, Extra Dry Rose Prosecco Millesimato (at least 85% of its grapes from the same vintage) of the palest salmon appearance. The fruity nose brings strawberry and cherry, which fall on the fresh, balanced palate alongside a fine mousse. Try as an aperitif or with lightly flavoured dishes.Sending Prosecco gifts is what we’ve been doing at Sparkling Direct since 2002, that’s 18 years of posting wine gifts to London and throughout the UK.
