Jeio
Brut Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG NV
The Jeio line is inspired by the influential Desiderio Bisol, whose wife lovingly referred to him as Jeio. The father of the current generation of Bisol, Desiderio was dedicated to product quality, acquiring only the steepest plots. While considerably more difficult to work, these plots are ideal for vine cultivation. As a result of his vision, the Glera cultivated in these vineyards is especially rich in malic acid, making the final wine more dynamic and evolved. Only the best Glera grapes are selected from Bisol’s 35 plots in Valdobbiadene to make the highly aromatic Jeio Brut.
Vintage Factsheets
The vineyards of Jeio, part of the renowned Bisol family, are nestled in the heart of the Prosecco Superiore DOCG region, known for producing the highest-quality Prosecco in Italy. The Bisol family, pioneers in the region, are recognized as the founding family of Prosecco Superiore, and their vineyards reflect a deep commitment to craftsmanship and tradition. The vines, ranging in age from 10 to 50 years, thrive in the rich marl and clay soils of the area, which offer a perfect balance of drainage and moisture retention, essential for producing exceptional grapes. These soils, combined with the unique microclimates of the steep hills, allow the Glera grapes to reach their full potential, imparting the wines with complex aromas, refreshing acidity, and a distinctive minerality.

“This Prosecco jumps from the glass with aromas of freshly cut pears, lemon zest, yellow peaches, Golden Delicious apples and jasmine. The wine's superfine bubbles lift the palate and highlight the fresh orchard fruit and apricot notes, finishing with a hint of sea salt and crushed stone.”
