For some months now, the world of Prosecco has been enriched by an unprecedented pink hue. It is the most interesting novelty in recent years, destined to further increase consumption occasions for the pleasant Veneto/Friuli sparkling wine. Astoria's interpretation of this new style is Vélere, Prosecco DOC Rosé, vintage, Extra Dry version. It is part of the so-called Venice Collection, easily recognisable by its softly shaped, worked bottles. It is made, as specifications dictate, from a blend of Glera grapes with a red wine made from Pinot Noir. Sparkling in an autoclave with a short rest on the lees to stabilise the delicate colour and make the whole more harmonious, and a hint of sweetness to make the wine even more pliant and drinkable. The result is a new bubbly, with a delicate colour and strong character. A tribute by Astoria to the craftswomen who dedicated their art to making sails for the galleys of the Serenissima Republic. The right wine with which to start a lunch or dinner with friends. Excellent as an aperitif, it can also accompany some tasty dishes such as pizza or a nice savoury pie.
If today Prosecco is produced in more than half a billion bottles a year and is sold in all corners of the world, certainly some credit must also go to companies like Astoria. Headed by brothers Paolo and Giorgio Polegato, Astoria Wines, in fact, is one of the leading representatives of this world. Founded in 1987, Astoria is not the classic winery tied to tradition and the reassuring world of old. Astoria, on the contrary, in addition to producing good wines has always been attentive to new trends and keeping up with the times. It is no coincidence that it is now considered one of the trendiest wineries in Italy, present with its wines in the most exclusive restaurants, the most important wine bars and the best nightclubs. The production heart of the Astoria winery is based on its own farm, "Tenuta Val De Brun" in Refrontolo, which is located in the heart of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene appellation. Forty hectares located in one of Italy's most beautiful wine-growing areas from which all the company's most iconic wines come. On the shelf, however, it is difficult not to recognise a bottle bearing the Astoria label at once. Thanks to the always very special packaging and a decidedly unmistakable style.
