Description

Azienda Agricola Moncader's Prosecco sur Lie is a sparkling wine from the Conegliano in Valdobbiadene area in the Veneto region of Italy, known for its delicate bubbles and complex flavors due to extended contact with the lees. This "sur lie" aging process gives the wine a richer texture and more pronounced yeasty notes compared to a standard Prosecco. Expect aromas of ripe pear, green apple, and citrus, along with hints of brioche and a subtle minerality. It's a dry, refreshing sparkling wine with a creamy mouthfeel. This Prosecco sur Lie would typically be a pale straw yellow in color.

Food Pairing: This Prosecco sur Lie pairs well with a variety of dishes, including appetizers like charcuterie and cheese, seafood (especially shellfish), creamy pasta dishes, and even light poultry. Its complexity makes it a versatile choice.

Producer

Azienda Agricola Moncader is a family-run winery located in the Conegliano/ Valdobbiadene area of Veneto region, Italy, the prime growing area for Prosecco. Founded in 1989 by Giovanni Battistella, the winery began with the purchase of vineyards in San Pietro di Feletto, reflecting a belief in the potential of Prosecco. Moncader focuses on producing high-quality Prosecco DOC and DOCG wines, including sparkling and "frizzante" (semi-sparkling) styles. The winery emphasizes sustainable vineyard management practices, aiming to preserve the unique terroir of their hillside vineyards. Today, the winery is run by Giovanni's son, Carlo, a graduate in viticulture and oenology, carrying on the family tradition of producing exceptional Prosecco. They are committed to crafting wines that express the distinct characteristics of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene hills, now a UNESCO World Heritage site.
