Description

Tiamo Prosecco DOC

Tiamo is a line of wines, made with organic grapes, that represent top quality wines from the best growers in their respective regions.

The Valdobbiadene region is ideally suited for the Prosecco grape, Glera. The region has a particular composition of the hilly soil, exposition to sun, frequent rains and constantly mild temperature that combine to provide the best conditions. Grapes for the Tiamo Prosecco DOC come from certified organic vineyards in and around Valdobbiadene. The average age of the vines is 10 – 25 years, planted in high densities and hand-harvested with low yields.

After pressing of the grapes and clarification of the must, primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats for 10 days. After fermentation is complete, a second fermentation occurs in glass-lined tanks over 45 days. This process, known as Charmat, produces the bubbles to create the sparkling wine while preserving the inherent freshness of the Prosecco grape (an advantage over the more time-intensive Champagne method).

Tiamo Prosecco has a green straw color and charming aromas of apples and pears and gardenia flowers. On the palate is it bright, fresh and fruity with fine bubbles. It pairs well with lighter cuisine food, especially fish/shellfish and softer cheeses. It’s an ideal aperitif and with any appetizer. It is also an excellent base for cocktails—such as the Bellini or Mimosa.
