This distinguished expression from Villa Jolanda displays typical finesse. Clean with lively aromatic apple and pear aromas, the palate is light and well balanced.

Winemaking Notes
In the magical earth of Veneto among the hills and vineyards, there is an ancient house. According to legend, an aristocratic lady with blue eyes and golden hair whose name was Jolanda lived in this villa. Fun and free spirited, Jolanda was a pianist with a velvety touch. She would celebrate the new vintage with gatherings of local vingnerons at the Villa where they would toast the quality and success of the year. With unbroken purity Villa Jolanda Prosecco reflects the passion and history of celebration the harvest brings each year. The Veneto region in North Eastern Italy is protected from the harsh northern European weather by the Alps in the north and bordered by the Adriatic Sea in the south, the region is known for its delicate and fresh sparkling wines.
One of the country's oldest varieties, the Prosecco grape is native to the Veneto region in North Eastern Italy. Protected from the harsh Northern European weather by the Alps in the north and boarded by the Adriatic Sea in the south, the region is renowned for its delicate and fresh sparkling wines. The vineyards of Veneto are generally sloped and hilly with medium clay soils. Fruit from Villa Jolanda’s own vineyards and long term growers is hand harvested in the early hours of the morning to retain freshness and flavour. The Prosecco grape is whole bunch pressed to ensure the clean varietal flavours are captured. After cold settling the juice is fermented cool in stainless steel tanks with selected yeast strains. The base wine is then blended and the secondary fermentation takes place resulting in a wine with fine persistent bead.
