The Valdobbiadene Extra Brut Nature DOCG of Colline Guizzette is the estate's driest and most mineral sparkling wine — exhibiting a characterful, harmonious structure with distinctive mineral notes given by the high clay and calcareous component of the soil. It is the wine through which the geological character of the Valdobbiadene hillside speaks most directly, the zero or near-zero dosage allowing the clay and calcareous soils to express themselves without softening or mediation.
The Extra Brut Nature designation demands the highest quality of base wine — no added sweetness can balance any shortcomings. The wine's harmony must come from the grapes themselves, from the vintage's natural ripeness and acidity balance, and from winemaking that captures and preserves those qualities. The Colline Guizzette estate's two-century connection to these hills gives this wine its essential quality: an understanding of how specific clay and calcareous soils express themselves in a dry sparkling context accumulated over generations.
A characterful and harmonious structure with distinctive mineral notes: qualities for the wine enthusiast who values precision and territorial specificity — and who finds, in the Extra Brut Nature, both precision and genuine pleasure combined. Available through UniqueWines.
