TANORÉ
Valdobbiadene DOCG

PROSECCO SUPERIORE

Tanoré is a generational cantina passionately producing Rive style Valdobbiadene DOCG (aka Prosecco Superioré DOCG) in the birthplace and epicentre of Prosecco, Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Italy. Since Ancient Rome, this diverse terroir of glacial origins and steep slopes at the foot of the Dolomites has been known to grow exceptional grapes. This soil hides a wealth of mineralogical complexity which, in combination with the perfect micro-climate, imbues a unique flavour into the true grape of Prosecco – the Glera grape. Tanoré uses 100% premium hand-selected Glera grapes from their own vineyards. Hand-tended, hand-picked, and handcrafted. Molto bene!

Tanoré Azienda Agricola is a generational family cantina who lovingly produce ‘Rive’ style Valdobbiadene DOCG – ‘Prosecco Superioré’ – in the birthplace and epicentre of Prosecco, Conegliano-Valdobbiadene.

What is it?

Valdobbiadene (VAHL-dohb-BEE’AH-deh-ne) is a town in the province of Treviso, Veneto, Italy and the birthplace of Prosecco. Valdobbiadene is also a Designation of Origin (like Champagne, Tequila, or Valpolicella) and the ancestral home of the first and finest Prosecco – Prosecco Superiore DOCG. Like any Designation of Origin it has a variety of choices; Brut, Cartizze, Extra-Dry, and more.

How is it Made?

There are two methods to make sparkling wine, the Classic (or Champagne) method or the Charmat-Martinotti Method- Italian sparkling wines (generally) use the Charmat-Martinotti Method. The main difference is that Valdobbiadene, during the refermentation phase of the base wine, takes place in a pressurized autoclave instead of in-bottle like the Champagne method.

Who is Tanoré?

Renato and Sergio Follador work according to the great Valdobbiadene wine-making tradition. First was their great-grandfather, then their grandfather and then finally their father Gaetano. During the eighties Gaetano imagined and built the new winery that stands, discreet, on a small turn on the top of the Cartizze Hill. Because of his impressive physics, and wise good nature, he has become an almost mythological figure in Valdobbiadene, earning the nickname of TANO RÉ (KING TANO).

It’s History

Valdobbiadene is the birthplace and produces the finest Prosecco. Conegliano-Valdobbiadene is an area located just below the Alpine-Dolomite area of Veneto in the province of Treviso, Italy whose hills and microclimate are perfectly suited to grow the Glera (formerly called Prosecco) grape variety. Vine-growing has been widespread in the Conegliano Valdobbiadene zone since ancient times. A memorial stone in the area recalls the words of a Roman centurion, mentioning the ‘vendemmiales’, meaning – celebrations on the occasion of the grape harvest. In 1876, the Conegliano- School of Winemaking was founded, the first of its kind in Italy.

Technical Information
Sparkling Loghialti

Sparkling Loghialti

It’s the wine of the Valdobbiadene wine-making tradition. Each vine grower reserves it for himself and his friends. The second fermentation in the bottle turns, with the slowness of the good times and rhythm of the seasons, the sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide resulting in an anarchist perlage and a riotous foam, settling at the bottom of the bottle crystalline residues of exhausted yeasts (hence the name “Col Fondo”, i.e.”With Dregs”).

Matchings

Tradition holds that it is the main wine for peasant hospitality. A bottle, thick glasses, fresh bread from the oven, alpine cheese and a flood of chatters.
