San Venanzio
San Venanzio features in one journal article on this site.
San Venanzio Fortunato is an essential, historic reference point for Prosecco Superiore DOCG. Founded in Valdobbiadene, the heart of the steep, UNESCO-recognized hills, the estate has long championed the purity of the Glera grape. Unlike mass-market Prosecco, San Venanzio prioritizes meticulous vineyard management and extended, careful secondary fermentation in pressurized tanks (the Charmat method). This precise approach yields sparkling wines of exceptional elegance, fine mousse, and vibrant, crystalline aromatics—white peach, acacia flower, and crisp green apple. They offer a benchmark masterclass in the nuanced, terroir-driven brilliance of authentic Conegliano Valdobbiadene.
