Bandamatina
In 2019, the ‘Colline del Prosecco di Conegliano e Valdobbiadene’ became an UNESCO World Heritage Site, in large part due to the region's role in the production of Prosecco. Since 2020 it is allowed by the DOC code of practice to produce Prosecco in the Rosè version.
This has to be obtained from a blend of Glera grapes with Pinot Noir.
Bandamatina’s farm is currently in organic conversion, and aim to obtain the full certification from the next vintage. Total is the respect of the varieties preserved in the old family vineyards, to continue to produce the best wines as possible.
Veneto
Veneto’s wines are some of Italy’s best known exports – the names of Soave, Bardolino and Valpolicella have long been associated with eminently drinkable Italian wines. Yet there is a lot more to this region, and indeed a lot more behind the names of its best known wines. With 26 DOCs and 13 DOCGs, Venice’s region has a substantial production of quality wine, as well as well-priced easy-drinking reds and whites bottled as IGTs. One of Italy’s most interesting wines is a product of these three grapes, the deep, dark Amarone della Valpolicella, recently promoted to DOCG status. Made from partly dried grapes in the vineyards north of Verona, it is a structured, complex and heady wine capable of great age that has gained a cult following among the wine industry’s elite.
In Treviso, north of Venice, are the towns of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene where the popular bubbly Prosecco is made using the Charmat method where the second fermentation takes place in large tanks.
In 2009 Prosecco di Conegliano e Valdobbiadene has become DOCG, encouraging reduced yields in the vineyards. Prosecco is also produced in the neighbouring Montello e Colli Asolani zone. White wines from Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon and Chardonnay are gaining in popularity and recent versions are responding well to oak ageing.
