Schlagwort: Prosecco Superiore

Most of the world thinks they know Prosecco: an easy, sweetish fizz for summer parties and quick toasts. Then, one quiet evening, you open a black bottle from a small family estate hidden in the steep hills of Valdobbiadene, and everything you believed collapses in a single sip. Suddenly the wine is bone-dry, vibrating with mountain freshness, carrying the scent of wild herbs and limestone, and finishing with a salty whisper that lingers for minutes. That is the moment you meet Follador (link), producers since 1769, still almost unknown in the German-speaking world, yet crafting some of the most exciting sparkling wines on the planet today. This is their story, and the story of four 2024 crus that deserve a place in every serious wine lover’s glass.
