Brut, Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG – Non-Vintage
-
Introduction
-
The Jeio line is inspired by the influential Desiderio Bisol, whose wife lovingly referred to him as Jeio. The grandfather of the current owners, 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.

“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.”

Jeio Brut, Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG — NV – Wine Enthusiast – 92 Points
“Graceful aromas of apples, pears and white flowers are the primary scents of this pretty Prosecco. Subtle stone notes of river rock are present on both the nose and palate, which lead to the creamy mouthfeel and vibrant acidity.”

Jeio (by Bisol1542), Brut, Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG — NV – James Suckling – 90 Points
A fresh, lively Prosecco with aromas and flavors of fresh pineapple and creamy minerals. Abundant fizz, which neutralizes the palate for a second or two, before the balanced fruit and minerals return.

Jeio (By Bisol1542) Prosecco, Valdobbiadene Superiore — NV – Vinous – 90 Points
The NV Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Jeio shows crisp mineral-laced green apples and savory spice. It’s soothingly sweet and spicy, yet full of zesty energy, with ripe orchard fruits offset by a tug of brisk acids. This takes a turn toward the savory side, with salty minerals and herbs; yet energy remains high, making for a clean and wonderfully refreshing finale.
