Why shop with us?
Ruggeri Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze Brut is an elegant sparkling wine from Cartizze, one of the most prestigious hillside areas in Valdobbiadene. Made primarily from Glera, it combines fine, persistent bubbles with fragrant fruit and a delicately mineral finish; the wine has also received the Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso.
Tasting Notes
A fine, persistent perlage leads into aromas of yellow apple, peach, pear and white flowers, with subtle hints of honey and almond. The palate is smooth and fresh, balancing gentle acidity with citrus and mineral notes that linger on the finish. Enjoy it while its freshness and aromatic character are at their best.
Production
The grapes are hand-harvested into small crates from the steep Cartizze hillsides, between Santo Stefano and San Pietro di Barbozza. The area’s distinctive soils and favorable microclimate help the grapes achieve ripe, expressive aromas. After temperature-controlled white-wine fermentation, the second fermentation takes place slowly in pressurized tanks using the Charmat method, followed by time on the lees for added depth and a refined mousse.
Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 6–8°C, with seafood, shellfish, fresh cheeses or light vegetable dishes. Its fruit and freshness also make it a lovely aperitif. Decanting is not recommended; open just before serving to preserve the delicate bubbles and aromas.
Producer
Ruggeri is a historic, family-owned producer in Valdobbiadene, a region closely associated with high-quality Glera sparkling wines. Its Cartizze Brut reflects the prestige of this celebrated hillside growing area and has been recognized with the Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso. The wine is described as suitable for a vegan diet.
