Adami Col Credas Brut Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Rive Farra di Soligo NV
Treviso, Verona, Veneto, ItalySerious Prosecco. Think single vineyard, steep sloped, 'cru' Prosecco, sustainably farmed old vines from 300-350 metres rooted in poor, dry clay soils. The Adami family have been farming these soils for three generations, more than 90 years of experience in the terroir of Valdobbiadene {say it with me: val-dough-bee-add-den-nay}. The dedication shows in dry, characterful wines like this one. Brut (only 4 g/l residual sugar, with tight green apple, light almond, faint white acacia, bitter citrus pith and stone. The nimble palate rips along with driving acidity, leaving just a bit of textured mineral stoniness in its fresh wake.Tasted: 04 January 2016Tasted by: Prices:
Adami Col Credas Brut Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Rive Farra di Soligo NV
Treviso, Verona, Veneto, Italy‘Rive’ is the local dialect for steep hillside vineyards. The grapes are grown 350-400 metres above sea level. The first wine is matured on its fine lees in stainless steel for three months before a second ‘Metodo Italiano’ fermentation done in a pressurized stainless tank. The style is mostly dry with delicate floral blossom notes. The attack is crisp and fresh with citrus, apples and pears and dried herbs over a stony mineral base. The finish is prolonged and fruity with fresh acidity to cleanse the palate. Perfect with white fish especially with tomatoes. Perfect with sushi as well.Tasted: 10 August 2015Tasted by: Prices:
