**Treviso, Italy** – Bottega, the renowned Italian winery known for its eye-catching Prosecco bottles, has launched a new premium range, the Gold Premium Vintage Collection, showcasing the sparkling wine’s impressive aging potential.
The collection, which includes **Gold Cru, Gold Extra Brut, Gold Diamond, Black Stardust, and Gold Stardust**, features extended fermentation periods, resulting in Prosecco with increased complexity and depth of flavor. This initiative, a decade in the making, demonstrates Bottega’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of Prosecco production.
“This new range is the result of a project that began more than 10 years ago,” explained a Bottega spokesperson. “By extending the fermentation time, we are producing Prosecco with increased complexity and even longer ageing potential.”
The new range is made from grapes harvested from single-vineyard sites in the hilly area of the Treviso province. The grapes undergo an extended fermentation, ranging from four to twelve months, in horizontal autoclaves. This process allows the wines to develop a greater depth of complex aromas and flavors.
Bottega’s commitment to quality is evident in their dedication to the region’s grape growers. The company sources grapes from small farms in the challenging slopes of Treviso, where dedicated producers share a passion for excellence.
“The region’s steep and challenging slopes require a community of producers who share the same passionate mindset and commitment to excellence,” the spokesperson added. “The result can certainly be tasted in Bottega’s new Gold Premium range, which allows the combination of expert winemaking and the skill and know-how of the region’s talented growers to shine.”
Bottega’s Gold Premium Vintage Collection is a testament to the company’s dedication to quality and innovation. This new range is a testament to the impressive aging potential of Prosecco, offering consumers an opportunity to experience the depth and complexity of this beloved Italian sparkling wine.
