This vine’s variety is with no doubt the most traditional and widespread reality in the territory of the Montello and the hills surrounding Asolo (North of Venice). The Azienda Agricola Loredan Gasparini has been cultivating it for many years in a typical hilly area (150-300m. a.s.l.). The grapes that grow on mineral soil give the product a definitely structural character which makes it unique and unmistakable as to its other types.

This selection comes from a small vineyard of only 0.97 hectares planted in 1980 on the Montello hill (50 km north of Venice) in the historic area of the Prosecco Superiore.

Tasso is our only Glera vineyard planted using the “Ritocchino” system and due to this particular exposure it develops a very important structure, typical of the Asolo Prosecco, but also a very elegant and refined bouquet that is not that usual in other vineyards of the area.

The second fermentation follows the Martinotti method and takes place in an autoclave for a period of 90 days, using our indigenous yeasts that always offer an incredible bond between the wine and its terroir.

This original Cuvée Indigene derives from a selection of the best grapes from the old “Monti Vineyard”, a plot dating back to 1975, situated on the Montello hillside (in the north of Venice) in the historic Prosecco Superiore area.

Apart from the characteristics of the grapes used, which stem from old Prosecco clones, another feature of this Cuvée is the natural wine-making method used. Soon after a light pressing, the must is placed in a very low temperature autoclave to initiate a very, very slow fermentation process. Thereby only indigenous yeast are used and there is no addition of sugars.

This slow, low-temperature fermentation lasts over 10 months and it creates an extremely fine and elegant perlage, endowing this spumante with its extraordinary creaminess. When united with the natural complexity of Asolo Prosecco, a unique and unmistakable character sets this spumante apart from other kinds.

Created by direct fermentation of the must using indigenous yeasts, this spumante will enable you to rediscover the true original feeling of the Prosecco variety.

Resulting from a cuvée of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, cultivated on the estate's hillside, this wine is derived from a soft pressing of the grapes, thanks to which the yield of a flower must settles at 50% of the initial product. This traditional Method is distiguished by its delicate and evanescent froth and elegant perfume. Delicately scented, it presents a dry and balaced taste with a refined aromatic body.
