From: Veneto, Italy
Varietal: Glera
Tasting Notes: This Prosecco has a gorgeous intensity on the nose, which shows notes of apple, lemon, grapefruit, and acacia flower, underscored by wild herb aromas. The palate is fresh with a good structure and flavors of white peach, crisp apple, lemon drop, and a soft, pretty mousse.
Pairing: Excellent as an aperitif, this wine is a commendable choice for the entire meal and goes particularly well with light risottos, grilled shellfish with lemon, halibut or cod, fresh melon and prosciutto, vegetables in season, and fried food in general. We recommend David Tanis’ recipe for Pan-Fried Risotto Cakes.
About. It is with hands dyed red from the Montello soil that the Pozzobon family created Case Paolin. In the early 1970s, Emilio the founder, a farmer and son of farmers, bought the estate where his father and his grandfather had worked as sharecroppers. Abandoning silkworms, he devoted himself entirely to the vineyard and passed on his passion to his three boys: Diego, Adelino and Mirco. Twenty years later, the children grew up to be men, ready to take over the reins of the winery, to transform it and lead it into the new century.
This NV Case Paolin Campo dei Sass Treviso Prosecco Extra Dry comes from vineyards to the north of Treviso (in the Prosecco DOC), on the alluvial plains below the Montello hill around the winery in Belvedere. It is vinified at low temperatures and is successively processed in the pressure tank to produce a sparkling wine.
