We travel to Terre di Vazzola. Anyone looking up the Wikipedia page will find the shortest Wikipedia page in the entire online encyclopedia, which emphasizes the fact that there's absolutely nothing to do. With 1,600 inhabitants, it doesn't exactly have a central function. However, Terre di Vazzola does have something very important: the winery that has been producing Brioso prosecco for decades.
sparkling wines from Italy
What Champagne is to France and Cava to the Spanish, Prosecco is to the Italians. A local sparkling wine that has become increasingly popular since the turn of the century. Countless Prosecco houses are springing up, selling Prosecco bottles with champagne corks. However, the winery behind Brioso has an impressive history. Le Contesse Winery dates back to the time when Venice was a republic. So, there's plenty of knowledge and experience to draw on.
Italian prosecco from Brioso
Brioso is located in the small but picturesque village of Terre di Vazzola. Just a 45-minute drive from Venice, you'll find the heart of the Prosecco region, the foundation of Italian sparkling wines. Terre di Vazzola is part of the Valdobbiadene area, considered the home of the finest Prosecco wines.
The vineyards of Brioso
The Brioso vineyards are in a beautiful state. The only grape variety you'll encounter here is the eponymous Prosecco grape. In recent years, this grape has gained considerable fame under a different name: Glera. Many producers wanted to separate the grape from the final product, so Glera has now become the common name for the age-old Prosecco grape.
Buy Brioso prosecco
Brioso offers two beautiful Prosecco wines. Besides the refreshing and everyday Frizzante, the winery also offers a Brioso Prosecco Spumante. This one is a bit fuller and more intense, with a fuller fizz. Perfect for the connoisseur. Brioso Prosecco is also a great choice for large gatherings. Its accessible character and attractive price make it perfect for everyone to have a glass of Brioso Prosecco.
