| Riva di Rocca Prosecco |
Prosecco country is located in the Veneto Region in northeast Italy. Proseccos are made by charmat method (tank method).
Riva di Rocca, which in Italian means "rocky shore," is an IGT Veneto (declassified from DOC Conegliano-Valdobbiadene) Prosecco produced by Martino Zanetti in Pieve di Soligo, a village in the province of Treviso, about 5 miles west of Conegliano and 30 miles north of Venice. Conegliano, along with Valdobbiadene, are the two towns synonymous with production of this bubbly wine.
This Prosecco is extra dry, with very fine, persistent bubbles. The nose hints of tart apples with blossomy citrus notes, while the taste is creamy and generous, revealing slightly honeyed pears. The finish is round and lingering.
