Sorelle Bronca, Brut, Valdobbiadene Prosecco DOCG, Veneto, Italy, NV

Overview of the Wine
Cantina Sorelle Bronca was founded in the mid-eighties by the sisters Antonella and Ersiliana, whose unconditional enthusiasm for the vine had been transmitted to them from childhood by their father Livio.

The path that the sisters had chosen to undertake independently was that of taking care of the vineyard, as they like to call it: an uphill journey that, from perfect “hill” women, they made it by making it an aspiration, a reality full of passion.

Over the years the vineyards have increased, to become sixteen acres today, all owned and located on the green hills above Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, in the province of Treviso. The production area enjoys a climate that takes shape between the Dolomites and the Adriatic Sea, while the Sorelle property extends in full sunlight, looking south and caressed by excellent ventilation.

The slope on which the vineyards grow is very strong, a condition that leads the roots to go deep into the underlying rock and giving their fruits an intense minerality with a low sugar content.

The artisan tradition collected by the sisters has been combined with modern techniques in respect of the environment, thanks to the important contribution of Piero, Antonella's husband, and Elisa, Ersiliana's daughter: the land is left to work naturally, taking care of it manually ... the vineyards they are in the heart of the Sorelle Bronca like beautiful fragrant gardens, where elegant Prosecco of the highest quality bloom lively, savory and harmonious.

90 Points - Vinous
Stone dust gives way to potpourri, crushed apples and pears, as the NV Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superior Brut blossoms in the glass. It sways from savory to sweet throughout its display of salty minerals, spices and orchard fruits, all carried upon a soothing wave of fine bubbles. A tart twang of citrus and savory herbs linger, as the mouth waters for another sip. This fully satisfying Prosecco punches well above its price point.
