Pavan, Prosecco Brut DOCG (Glera)
Pavan is a respected winery in Veneto, known for crafting high-quality sparkling wines that showcase the region’s exceptional terroir. Their Prosecco Brut DOCG is made from Glera, the signature grape of Prosecco, sourced from the finest vineyards within the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG. This designation represents the highest quality tier for Prosecco, ensuring a wine with superior elegance, balance, and complexity. The Brut style, with its lower residual sugar, highlights the crisp acidity and fresh fruit profile that define premium Prosecco.
Sourced from hillside vineyards with mineral-rich marl and limestone soils, the Glera grapes benefit from optimal sun exposure and cooling breezes from the Dolomite Mountains, which help retain aromatic intensity and bright acidity. The Charmat method is used for secondary fermentation, allowing for a refined effervescence while preserving the grape’s delicate floral and fruit characteristics. A longer period on the lees enhances the wine’s texture and depth.
Appearance: A brilliant pale straw yellow with persistent, fine bubbles that create a delicate and elegant mousse. The wine exhibits a slight greenish hue at the rim, reflecting its freshness and vibrancy. Swirling reveals a lively sparkle, enhancing its crisp and inviting presence.
Aroma: Fresh and fragrant, with notes of green apple, white peach, and Meyer lemon, complemented by floral hints of acacia and elderflower. Subtle undertones of pear, honeysuckle, and a touch of minerality add depth and elegance.
Taste: Crisp and lively, with flavours of citrus zest, green apple, and pear leading the palate. A fine, creamy mousse enhances the texture, while delicate floral and herbal nuances add complexity. The balanced acidity and mineral freshness create a refined and invigorating drinking experience.
Finish: Clean, dry, and refreshingly crisp, with lingering notes of citrus, white flowers, and a subtle saline minerality. The fine bubbles and bright acidity leave a lively, elegant impression that lingers pleasantly on the palate.
Food Pairing: Fresh oysters with a squeeze of lemon enhance the wine’s minerality and bright acidity, creating a perfect pairing. Prosciutto-wrapped melon complements the Prosecco’s fruitiness and crispness, balancing the dish’s sweet and savoury elements beautifully
