Fantinel - Sparkling Wine Brut Cuvée Prestige - Sparkling Wine

Fantinel - Feel the Emotion

Once upon a time there was a man with a radiant smile who venerated good food so much that it became his reason for living. And in such a joyful parade of pleasure, wine sat on the royal throne. As a restaurateur and hotelier in northern Friuli, Paron Mario soon realized that his mission was to give people emotions with his special love for wine and that, to do it fully, he had to produce wine with his own hands. 1969 was the year when he acquired the first vineyards in the Collio area, the year when the great adventure started. This engaging adventure soon featured his sons Luciano, Gianfranco and Loris as the protagonists.

The three turned their father’s teachings into virtues, learning to touch and feel the soil, follow the time and the flow of the seasons, taste the grapes getting a glimpse of the secret of their little-big miracle. In the following years the family’s land ownership increased and many dreams came true.

That small agricultural company today, with the third generation represented by Marco, Stefano and Mariaelena, has become an internationally prestigious winery, ambassador of Friulian winemaking art in the world. But the origins have not been forgotten and, what’s more, the flame of passion is increasingly vivid.

Once upon a time a man, the first hero and author of a fable, wrote the first page signing it with an indelible imprint. Let’s savour this book entitled "Fantinel" ecstatically.

Fantinel - Sparkling Wine Brut Cuvée Prestige

The sparkling wine Brut Cuvée Prestige is located in the Tauriano Estate of Fantinel, in the province of Pordenone. It is made from a careful selection of Glera, Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay grapes, harvested at the right degree of ripeness.

After the classic white vinification, the sparkling process takes place in a steel autoclave according to the Charmat method. Straw yellow with citrus reflections, Fantinel's Cuvée Prestige shows off an intense and persistent bouquet, characterized by floral notes on a light crust underlay.

In the mouth it is dry and fresh, pleasantly elegant. Excellent as an aperitif, it is the ideal combination of fish based appetizers.

Friuli Venezia Giulia

Friuli Venezia Giulia, despite its limited territorial extension, occupies a leading role in Italian wine production. This is also thanks to the commitment of small and large producers who have been able to combine an ancient tradition with the most modern technologies in the production of wine, with the constant aim of quality.

Do not underestimate the physical and geographical characteristics of the region, which alternates high plains with lands facing the Venetian lagoon, soft hills with imposing hills, with a great variety of territories that give life to wines of great value and peculiar characteristics.
