PRIVATE CARTIZZE

No doubt, absolutely the best PROSECCO of Italy. From the small hill of CARTIZZE, only 106 hectares, the BISOL family wine makers since the XVI century, produce this "Private reserve" of just 1700 numbered bottles.

The Bisol family, whose historical winery is located in S. Stefano di Valdobbiadene, cultivate directly more than 20 of the best-located plots immersed in the steep hills that lead from Valdobbiadene towards Conegliano, the most prestigious area of the appellation. The land is extremely fragmented and studded with small plots, so much so that the average size of each property is little more than a hectare. Bisol: one of the few companies that directly manage the entire wine-making process from the initial careful choice of land right through to the final bottling process. This guarantees the maximum quality yield, as each single stage, fundamental in determining the final quality level, requires constant and rigorous control.

The feather in the cap is the three hectares of land managed on the summit of the Cartizze hill: an area that winds along the crest of the steep hill at an altitude of 300 metres above sea level and benefits from total exposition to sunlight as well as continuous ventilation that together with the sandy nature of the land makes it an area of rare value. The 106 hectares of the Cartizze hill are divided up between 140 owners and the value of the land has reached the dizzy heights of more than 2,5 million euro per hectare.

The Bisol family pay the maximum attention to detail to each individual wine-producing stage, from nuturing the vine to selling the wine, from the grape to the glass. The vineyards managed by the company total 20 plots immersed in the most prestigious area of the appellation. The hectare managed by the Bisol family on the Cartizze hill, the most precious vineyard in Italy, is their crowning glory. By means of a continuous change of generations the Bisol family keep on handing down the sceptre from father to son and dividing management responsibilities between the family members: a solid family unit continuosly reinforcing the history of the company.

The quality of Bisol is highly regarded and appreciated in all the countries of the world where Prosecco has reached. From USA to South America, from China to India but arrived on markets considered impossible to reach such as Porto Rico, Caribbean, Russia, Oceania.The boom of tourism has played an important role for Bisol Prosecco to reach places where up until ten years ago wine wasn't even drunk such as Bermuda, Cambodia, Vietnam and ex Burma.

The GLERA is a particular native grape variety, giving rise to an aromatic grape that leaves a pleasant fruity sensation. The wine produced in the hills of Valdobbiadene and Conegliano is of very high quality but the Prosecco made from the hill CARTIZZE is the TOP of the TOP!!!

PRIVATE CARTIZZE was celebrated as "Lifestyle Symbol" when in San Francisco the BISOL brand was included in: "The Top 100 Wineries of the Year", latest in a long series of international awards.
