DESCRIPTION OF THE SOMMELIER
The Extra Brut "Riserva del Governatore" is a sparkling wine made with the Martinotti Method by the Bortolomiol winery, one of the historical names of Valdobbiadene. It is a classic cuvée, composed of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, which is part of the prestigious Couture Millesimati Collection line. The vines are grown on splendid and steep hills, sunny and well ventilated, which favor an excellent ripening of the grapes, for the creation of bases characterized by freshness and elegance. A label that was born from the desire to combine the long experience in the field of sparkling Prosecco with the new challenge of working with international grapes, unanimously considered among the best ever to make sparkling wines.

The "Riserva del Governatore" sparkling wine comes from the Chardonnay and Pinot Nero vineyards cultivated in Sylvoz on the precious limestone soils of the Valdobbiadene hilly area. In this land, the sparkling wine tradition has ancient origins and has been refined with the Martinotti Method technique, which involves the second fermentation in autoclave. A productive choice, particularly suitable for preserving and highlighting the freshness and fragrance of the varietal profile. After soft pressing, the grapes are sent to white vinification in steel tanks at a controlled temperature and with selected yeasts. The subsequent sparkling process in autoclave lasts over 6 months and allows the “Riserva del Governatore” to acquire an expressive finesse and a particularly refined creamy delicacy.

Bortolomiol has put all its great experience into the creation of the Cuvée Extra Brut “Riserva del Governatore”. A Martinotti Method sparkling wine with a beautiful texture, which thanks to the long period in autoclave, expresses intense, complex and persistent aromas, without sacrificing immediate expressive pleasure. In the glass it has a bright straw yellow color, with a fine and continuous perlage. The bouquet is subtle with floral aromas, delicate fruity notes. On the palate it has a good structure, with deep and persistent aromas, which spread over a harmonious and creamy texture towards a fresh and savory finish.
