"There is no stronger sensation than that we experience when we enjoy a glass of "Le Rive di Ogliano". It is one of those wines that occupy a special place in all of our hearts – it is the Prosecco Superiore par excellence: carefully created, wilfully perfected, unconditionally loved. Sumptuous and linear like the hills around Conegliano in a painting by Cima da Conegliano. Simple, satisfying, sublime. It is almost as if the wine ruffling the leaves in the Rive is somehow capture in its fine perlage. This Prosecco Superiore DOCG is an iconic wine, eclectic and versatile by nature, accompanying food with elegance and sumptuousness. It is instantly sharp and agreeable, the prodigal son of a unique terroir. Quite simply, a sip of Le Rive di Ogliano is a symphony of wine.
Hails from a vineyard of 50-year-old vines, facing east and caressed by a constant breeze. The result is a wine whose powerful fruity aroma, structure and mineral touches are widely acknowledged. Hand-picked, selected grapes are white vinified by the gravity method. Prise de mousse and maturation take place for approximately three months, followed by further ageing for one month in bottle.
Straw yellow animated by constant, vivacious perlage. The scent is of generous fragrances of lime, acacia blossoms, and wisteria, which entwine with hints of fruit such as pears, Golden Delicious apples, bergamot and pink grapefruit. In the mouth it is lively, saline and well structured. Prevalent on the palate are hints of quinces, lemons and herbs, which come together in a pleasant, lingering finish."

"Delicate nose with precise and elegant fruit characteristics of green and golden apple, candied fruit, acacia, rocha pear and pithy lemon. Soft texture, great balance with firm grapefruit acidity and plump juicy stone fruit showing a lovely length and depth."
5 Stars & Yvonne Lorkin, November 2020 (2018 Vintage)
"One sniff and sip and you’ll see why this exceptionally tasty fizz has won the ‘Best Prosecco in the World’ award at the Decanter World Wine Awards. It’s sourced from a single site in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene, which is where the most prestigious prosecco in the world comes from. It’s also crafted from fruit harvested in a single year, which indicates the winemaker feels strongly that the quality of the harvest is pretty much perfection, too good to blend with anything else. I am obsessed with how it’s so delicately scented with soft stonefruit, citrus blossom, and squeaks of honeysuckle, and how cloud-like and pillowy-textured it is when the subtle guava, crisp, softly sweet lemon and almond notes swim around the gums."
