The Ca’ Salina Winery is located in a magnificent position, standing atop a hill in the heart of the Valdobbiadene DOCG area. From its windows you can admire the stunning beauty of the Prosecco Superiore hillsides embroidered with vineyards and the ‘Strada del Vino’ wine road. The estate’s large family villa dominates the surrounding landscape and is an obvious destination for wine lovers visiting the area. Tradition, a passion for the land and an appreciation of simple pleasures. These are the values which have motivated the choices made by Gregorio Bortolin and his wife Neva, and which the couple have passed on to their sons Massimo and Michele. With these values firmly in mind, innovation makes sense, as it contributes to ensuring the quality of Ca’ Salina’s products.

About the grape variety

Incrocio Manzoni 13.0.25. A rare variety created by Luigi Manzoni in the 1920s by crossing Raboso Piave and Moscato d’Amburgo.

Winemaking

Very short maceration of the grapes under soft pressure so as to maintain the colour of the skins. Second fermentation (or spumantizzazione) in the autoclave under controlled temperature (known as the “Charmat” method or “Italian method”).

Tasting notes

Rose petal colour. Fragrant and aromatic bouquet with hints of wild strawberries and citrus fruit. Sweet but reliable flavour.

Food pairing

Wonderful with fruit tarts and cakes, custard and puddings.
Serve between 6° and 10°C.
