The grapes of Grave di Stecca come from a particular vineyard in Valdobbiadene, the only one of its kind in the whole area of Prosecco. Enclosed by a high stone wall that shields it from the outside environment, it is similar to a French clos, a fenced vineyard. The area’s soil and microclimate yield a sparkling wine with extraordinary characteristics: profound and complex, hints of ripe fruit harmonically combine with nuances of aromatic herbs and intense mineral notes. Our outstanding Spumante.
