Crede Brut, Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG
"Crede" is a dialect word for clay, which is a defining feature of the soil in Valdobbiadene in which the grapes for this Prosecco Superiore are cultivated.
“Crede” is the local term for clay, a type of soil that has the unique ability to retain water, which in turn helps protect the vines from drought conditions. This region, situated 250 meters above sea level, benefits greatly from this natural characteristic, ensuring that the vines receive adequate hydration even during dry periods.

"Chalk dust and white smoke give way to dried flowers and hints of spice as the 2023 Brut Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Crede slowly emerges from the glass. This is savory within, with brisk acidity and crisp orchard fruits that flow across a wave of softly textured bubbles. The 2023 finishes with admirable length and focus, leaving a saline sensation and tinge of sour citrus."
