NV Matho 'Bianco Cuvée' Prosecco Brut Zero

100% organic Glera from prime hillside sites in Conegliano and Valdobiaddene. Friendly, fresh, and bone dry – not to mention perhaps surprisingly elegant. Classic notes of bright citrus, green apple, light floral notes and a hint of hay, wrapped up in a delightfully bubbly, light bodied, dry package. Easy, breezy, beautiful.... Prosecco!

Brothers Bruno and Massimo Marion have run their family winery since 1999, but multiple previous generations of the Marion family have owned vines and produced wines here continuously since the 1800s. The vineyard extends from the hillside slopes around Conegliano and Valdobbiadene down to the banks of the Piave River, where calcareous white stones cover the soil and slowly release the heat accumulated during the day, thus optimizing grape maturity and freshness. Vines are trained using the Sylvoz system, which produces a dense canopy and requires little pruning. To be clear, this is not col fondo “farmhouse wine”: the cellar is state of the art and space aged, equipped with smartphone-controlled automated temperature-controlled fermenters and every cellar gadget you can think of. But, all that technology is juxtaposed with old vines farmed under biodynamic principles, the winery and entire property is certified organic by the ICEA, and the end result is a line-up of remarkably serious, brut-zero wines. -Importer Notes
