Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG
Spumante Extra Brut
11,5% vol – 750 ml
Prosecco with residual sugar below 3 grams per liter, boasting great personality and sharp acidity, made with 100% Glera grapes from hillside vineyards at 370 meters above sea level.
A revival of the ancient “brut nature” sparkling wine tradition, resulting in a distinctly dry sparkling wine. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by secondary fermentation in autoclave using the Martinotti method for 90-100 days.
A subtle, elegant perlage, zesty notes of lemon, white flowers and bread crusts. Sustained acidity, length and persistence. A Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Docg spumante that can almost be described as extreme.

Two Souls, Perhaps Three: The Prosecco DOCGs
Prosecco is more than a wine: it’s a tale of lands and traditions, embodied in its DOCGs – Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore and Asolo Prosecco Superiore – two distinct souls, with Cartizze as a possible third, a gem that shines apart.
Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG
Between the hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, across 15 municipalities in the province of Treviso, lies the Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG. Here Glera reigns over steep slopes, often hand-harvested, alongside local varieties like Verdiso and Bianchetta, with a few rows of Perera adding a refined touch. Ancient soils of sandstone and marl, paired with the nearby Prealps, lend the wine a unique mineral freshness. Two souls coexist: Conegliano, softer and rounder, and Valdobbiadene, crisp and upright. At its heart, in Valdobbiadene, shines Cartizze: a 106-hectare enclave between Santo Stefano, Saccol, and San Pietro di Barbozza, crafting a “grand cru” both savory and refined. Cartizze, with hints of apple, pear, and rose, lifts Prosecco to rare elegance, thanks to well-drained soils and a cool microclimate. Whether Spumante or Frizzante, this wine offers scents of wildflowers and white fruit, with a fresh, vibrant taste – perhaps the third soul in this story.
Asolo Prosecco Superiore DOCG
On the Asolo Hills, spanning Treviso and Vicenza, the Asolo Prosecco Superiore DOCG unfolds across 16 municipalities at altitudes between 100 and 450 meters. Here Glera rules the gentle slopes, beside Bianchetta standing out among native varieties, with hints of Perera rounding out the mix, on marly-calcareous soils. Compared to the rugged slopes of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, the mild climate enhances a refined Prosecco, Spumante or Frizzante. It brings notes of white flowers, peach, and a touch of honey, with a smooth yet dry finish. This is Prosecco’s understated, elegant soul, less heralded but just as noble, shaped by a land steeped in history and beauty.
Two souls, perhaps three
Conegliano Valdobbiadene is the DOCG ranging from structured complexity to delicate elegance, with the duality of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene and the pinnacle of Cartizze; Asolo is the one of understated elegance. Both turn Glera into bubbles with the Martinotti method, yet speak different languages, bound by Veneto’s earth. Two souls, surely – or maybe three, if Cartizze claims its place.

Three Personalities, One DNA: The Prosecco Superiore Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG Collection
In the heart of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, in Tarzo, at the Reseretta locality, lie the vineyards of the Zanotto family, passionately managed by Riccardo Zanotto. From these Glera grapes, grown at 370 meters above sea level, three expressions of Prosecco Superiore DOCG are born, embodying the excellence of the territory and the artistry of winemaking. ZB, Brù, and Brut Bajo: three wines sharing the same DNA, yet distinguished by unique personalities, defined by a residual sugar content masterfully calibrated by an expert winemaker. A journey that begins with the quality of the grapes and evolves into three modern, refined interpretations.
ZB: The Bold, Contemporary Revolution
With a residual sugar content below 3 g/L, ZB is the Extra Brut that defies convention. Far from the Extra Dry Proseccos that conquered the world in the ‘90s, this wine represents a more modern way of drinking, aligned with recent trends—not only in Prosecco but also in the world of Champagne, where Extra Brut has become synonymous with elegance and purity. It’s no coincidence that the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG regulations were recently updated to include this category, with a sugar range of 0-6 g/L, acknowledging its value and growing demand.
At first glance, the label’s design reflects its straightforward, uncompromising nature. On the palate, ZB delivers a fine bubble, pronounced minerality, and a dry finish that enhances the purity of the fruit. It’s the Prosecco for those seeking a refined, pure, and characterful experience—perfect for an aperitif or to pair with raw fish.
Brù: The Vibrant Essence of the Territory
With 5 g/L of residual sugar, Brù is the harmonious and enveloping Brut that captures the most authentic and captivating soul of Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG. Its pure elegance shines through both in the glass and in the label’s design: an essential minimalism, illuminated by a vibrant orange hue, mirroring the freshness and minerality of a dry, lively wine with a persistent bubble, free from intrusive sweetness.
This versatile Prosecco Superiore pairs beautifully with appetizers, light first courses, or a toast among friends, bringing the freshness and minerality typical of Tarzo’s hills. Brù is the choice for those who cherish tradition, but with a modern twist that doesn’t go unnoticed.
Brut Bajo: The Fruity Harmony
Soft and harmonious, with 8 g/L of residual sugar, Brut Bajo is the most approachable of the three, while still retaining the hallmarks of a Brut, placing it in the mid-to-upper range of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG regulations (up to 12 g/L). Its notes of apple and pear blend into a balanced sip, with a fine bubble that enhances its freshness and liveliness. The label, designed by the artist Bajo, with his intense and emotionally charged faces, reflects the wine’s fruity harmony and convivial spirit—a burst of flavor that invites sharing. Brut Bajo is the most harmonious expression in the collection, ideal for those seeking a Prosecco Superiore Brut with a fruity profile, yet always elegant and measured.
What makes this collection unique is its origin: the “I Ciliegi” vineyard in Reseretta, in the municipality of Tarzo, managed by Riccardo. From these high-quality grapes, the winemaker crafts three rigorously DOCG wines, playing with residual sugar to create distinct personalities. It’s a process that blends tradition and innovation, transforming exceptional raw materials into three interpretations that speak to different tastes and moments, while never losing sight of the territory’s authenticity. Three sparkling wines that adapt to every occasion, three “siblings” united by the same DNA of quality, ready to bring the freshness and elegance of Prosecco Superiore Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG to tables around the world, with an eye always on the future.
