Just the other night, at Col Fòndo 2/3, we discussed the future of this wine.
While it is difficult to foretell what the world of Prosecco will be ten years hence, today I decided to try looking a little farther than my own nose and figure which way to go in the future.
Here are two simple [...]

I have been asking myself this question for months: how should I drink this unknown wine? So I started experimenting, opening dozens of bottles while trying to capture its soul.
I still remember that my first glass of  Colfòndo left me confounded; I had completely forgot about this kind of wine. The cloudiness, the dryness, the [...]

It is hard to explain why the Bele Casel website drew my attention since the very first time I saw it.

It is not only about Asolo Prosecco

Asolo

It is a wonderful village overlooking a vast section of the Treviso foothills. The famous poet Giosuè Carducci described Asolo as “the town with one thousand horizons”. Our town also gave hospitality to Queen Catherine Cornaro of Cyprus, after she was exiled from her island Country.
One [...]

Prosecco DOCG Asolo

Work in the cellar continues. We assayed all Proseccos, trying very hard to memorize each minute variation. This (here) is how Prosecco looked like at the end of the fermentation process.
Two days ago one of the tanks started exuding some redolence of thickening and dregs.  This is the perfect time to begin the decanting. This [...]
