Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Brut 'Rustico' (750 ml.) Nino Franco
The Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Brut “Rustico” by Nino Franco is made from Glera grapes grown on the steep slopes of Valdobbiadene, where altitude and microclimate enhance freshness and aromatic finesse. After gentle pressing and controlled fermentation in steel, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in autoclave using the Charmat method, preserving its aromas and vibrancy. It offers notes of green apple, pear, white flowers, and citrus, with a delicate minerality. The palate is lively, dry, and well-balanced, with fine, persistent bubbles. Perfect as an aperitif, it pairs beautifully with seafood starters, raw fish, vegetable tempura, and light Mediterranean dishes.

THE WINE
The Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Brut “Rustico” by Nino Franco is made from Glera grapes grown on the steep slopes of Valdobbiadene, where altitude and microclimate enhance freshness and aromatic finesse. After gentle pressing and controlled fermentation in steel, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in autoclave using the Charmat method, preserving its aromas and vibrancy.

THE COMPANY
The winery Nino Franco was founded in Valdobbiadene, a small village in the Treviso area protected by the gentle hills of Veneto, shaped by numerous Glera vineyards, traditionally called prosecco. A story made by three generations of winemakers connected by a deep passion for the vineyard and its fruits, but also characterized by the same enormous desire to continuously experiment and create refined products.
Typicality and excellence: these are the elements that have always characterized the winery Nino Franco, which has now become a promoter and supporter of the potential of Prosecco and its territory, the latter rightly nominated for inclusion in the UNESCO World Heritage. The vineyards are almost all in the heart of the Valdobbiadene area, except for a few plots located in the Cartizze area, a precious hill - a cru, as the French would say - from which an excellent Prosecco is born. Among the rows, the plants are cultivated in full respect of the environment and ecosystem, in order to harvest pure, fragrant, and aromatic grapes, as only Glera grapes can be. Bunches rich in varietal and primary aromas arrive at the winery to be processed and interpreted while always keeping a fundamental objective in mind: to enhance the fruity freshness and accentuate all those individual nuances derived from varietal and terroir.
The method used to produce sparkling wine from the grapes is, of course, the Charmat-Martinotti method, which, compared to the Classic Method, tends to highlight the immediacy and fragrance of the fruit, a typical characteristic of younger bubbles, such as Prosecco itself.
With over a million bottles produced annually, the winery Nino Franco offers a range of different products, each with its own character and personality. From Brut Superiore to Dry, from Cartizze to Valdobbiadene, passing through “Rustico” and the Rosé “Faìve”, they are all Prosecco, those labeled “Nino Franco”, which embody the best essence of the most famous Italian bubbles in the world.
