Cartizze – Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze DOCG Dry

This Cartizze Dry reveals itself to the eye with a beautiful, bright and shining straw yellow colour. Wide nose with fruity notes of banana, apple, pear and citrus notes and floral hints of orange blossom and jasmine. Soft in the mouth, enveloping sip, a beautiful fruity and floral combination is perceived between nose and mouth, which makes the drink truly special. The perlage is fine and delicate with a long and persistent finish.
