Owner Benedetto Ricci, assisted by his wife Clotilde, comes from a local family steeped in winemaking history, and, combined with technical expertise, is completely fanatical about quality in all respects (even the superb risotto he cooks is made from a rice matured for 8 years to develop the flavour).

Valdellovo, meaning ‘valley of the wolf’, is a private family domain of 10 hectares on the steep hillside vineyards in the heart of the best delimited sector. The winery was founded in 2000, hence the name Anno Zero for their Prosecco Extra Dry, a fresh and beautifully balanced wine with peachy and floral notes and deep underlying minerality that sets it apart from the cheap Prosecco DOC produced at lower altitude to the south and east.

Benedetto introduces us to discover a new way to drink sparkling wine.

“With its intriguing aromas and seductive flavor, you can enjoy a glass of sparkling wine with your friends anytime. An original shade of color to enchant the eyes before the other senses, a pink that is already a splendid emotion. It is a surprise for the palate to follow this sparkling wine in its floral and fruity notes, kept in perfect balance by a refined winemaking technique. The rosé color is very elegant and announces a rich personality, cheeky but with temperament. The character comes from the high quality of the grapes, the delicacy is the result of the soft pressing and of a long and slow fermentation of the must for the second fermentation. An absolutely fine sparkling wine that conquers for its aromas and seduces for its taste, an exciting interpreter of conviviality.”
