Sorelle Bronca | Prosecco Extra Dry
Hailing from the heart of the Prosecco region, Sorelle Bronca’s Extra Dry Prosecco is a refined expression of the Glera grape, meticulously crafted by the Bronca sisters. Their estate, located in the Conegliano-Valdobbiadene DOCG area, is renowned for producing high-quality, sustainably farmed Prosecco that emphasizes both tradition and innovation.
Winemaker & Philosophy: Sisters Antonella and Ersiliana Bronca lead the family-run winery with a commitment to organic farming and minimal intervention. Their philosophy revolves around expressing the natural vibrancy of the Glera grape, while maintaining respect for the environment. The result is a Prosecco that combines elegance, balance, and purity.
Grape Variety & Terroir: Made from 100% Glera, this Prosecco benefits from the steep hillside vineyards of Valdobbiadene, which are situated at higher altitudes and feature a mix of calcareous and clay soils. These conditions contribute to the wine’s crispness and fine bubbles, with the cooler microclimate enhancing the aromatic complexity.
Flavor Profile: Sorelle Bronca’s Prosecco Extra Dry greets you with a delicate bouquet of white flowers, green apple, and ripe pear, along with hints of citrus and a light, toasty note. On the palate, it offers a creamy mousse with flavors of juicy stone fruits like peach and apricot, balanced by a bright acidity and a subtle sweetness typical of the Extra Dry style. The finish is long, refreshing, and slightly off-dry, with lingering floral and fruity nuances.
Pairings: Perfect as an aperitif, this Prosecco also pairs wonderfully with light appetizers, fresh salads, and seafood dishes such as oysters or shrimp. Its balanced sweetness makes it a delightful match for Asian cuisine or mildly spicy dishes, and it complements soft cheeses and fruit-based desserts.
