Ca’ dei Zago CA’ DEI ZAGO Valdobbiadene DOCG Metodo Classico Dosaggio Zero 2021

Description

Ca’ dei Zago Valdobbiadene Metodo Classico Dosaggio Zero has delicate and seductive aromas of aromatic herbs, white stone fruit and yellow wildflowers. On the palate it is very dry, the sparkling acidity accompanies the pear, the citrus zest and the mineral notes of flint. An elegant perlage provides finesse.

Produced with the Classic Method, the wine remains in contact with the lees until April, after which it is separated from the lees and bottled for the second fermentation in the first quarter of the fourth crescent moon of the new year. This process takes place by gravity where the bottles are placed in a horizontal position and left to rest in the cellar for seven months. The wine is then disgorged in January, where the yeast is removed from the neck of the bottle preserving the natural qualities of the Prosecco!

Since 1924 Ca’ dei Zago has cultivated 15 hectares of vineyards in Valdobbiadene, the heart of the production of Prosecco DOCG. The owners Christian and Marika adopt traditional production methods on hills located at an altitude of about 250 meters above sea level. Their soil is rich in clay and limestone, while the climate is moderately warm, influenced by the proximity of both the Alpine Dolomites and the Adriatic Sea. Small biodynamic production of high quality, handcrafted from harvest to bottling. The new wines are therefore the expression of research conducted with the same scientific rigor as its illustrious ancestor but with a contemporary spirit, like a runner who receives the baton and carries it forward with renewed energy.
