Let me introduce you to 'La Rivetta Colmel' from the renowned Azienda Agricola Rebuli Franco, a sparkling gem from the heart of Veneto, Italy. This isn't just Prosecco; it's Prosecco Superiore DOCG, a designation that sets it apart with stricter production standards and grapes sourced from the best hillside vineyards in Valdobbiadene. Rebuli Franco is a name synonymous with tradition and quality. They are deeply rooted in the land, combining time-honored techniques with modern innovation to craft wines that truly express the unique terroir of the region. The vineyard practices sustainable agriculture, showing love for the land they inherited.
Crafted from 100% Glera grapes, this wine presents a symphony of flavors. The 'La Rivetta Colmel' boasts a brilliant straw yellow hue, dancing with a delicate perlage that invites you to indulge. On the nose, expect a captivating bouquet of crisp green apple, ripe pear, and a hint of delicate white blossoms. Each sip provides a harmonious blend of fresh fruit flavors, balanced by a refreshing acidity and a persistent, elegant finish. It is an easy to drink sparkling wine, making it the right choice for your daily basis.
With an alcohol percentage of around 11%, it is the perfect accompaniment for a wide array of dishes. As a Brut Prosecco, the wine has very little residual sugar, making it very dry. This makes it a versatile partner at the table. Think of light appetizers like prosciutto-wrapped melon or bruschetta with fresh tomatoes. It's also beautiful with seafood, especially shellfish like shrimp scampi or grilled scallops. You can also pair it with sushi or Asian-inspired dishes. Or consider pairing this wine with creamy risotto or light pasta dishes with seafood or vegetables.
Serve chilled, ideally around 6°C (43°F), to fully appreciate its lively character. There is no need to wait before drinking the wine, so pop the bottle and enjoy it right away. 'La Rivetta Colmel' from Rebuli Franco is more than just a wine; it's an experience. It's the taste of the Italian hillsides, the passion of a family dedicated to their craft, and the perfect sparkle to elevate any occasion.
