β¨ Technical Specifications
Santa Margherita, founded in 1935 by Count Gaetano Marzotto, has long been a pioneer in modern Italian winemaking. Their Prosecco Brut, crafted primarily from the Glera grape grown in the scenic hills of the Veneto, represents a classic expression of Italian sparkling heritage. Produced using the Martinotti-Charmat method, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the grape's natural, vibrant aromatics. This process yields a sparkling wine characterized by a fine, persistent perlage, delicate aromas of white peach, green apple, and citrus, and a crisp, clean finish that embodies the elegant, easy-going lifestyle of its native region.
πΎ About the Producer
Founded in 1935 by Count Gaetano Marzotto, Santa Margherita began as an ambitious agricultural revitalization project based in Fossalta di Portogruaro and has since evolved into one of Italy's most iconic and internationally acclaimed wine estates. The winery revolutionized global wine culture in 1961 when it pioneered the white vinification of pink-skinned Pinot Grigio grapes in the Adige Valley, creating a crisp, fresh, and aromatic style that redefined Italian white wine. Today, Santa Margherita curates prime vineyards across Italy's most celebrated terroirs, including Alto Adige, Valdobbiadene, Tuscany, and Lombardy. Guided by a deep dedication to sustainability, precision, and regional authenticity, the estate is renowned for its benchmark Pinot Grigio, elegant Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore sparkling wines, refined Chianti Classico reds, and vibrant rosΓ©s.
