Silvano Follador Description
Follador makes a single wine, a solitary house cuvée. This extra brut prosecco undergoes two fermentations and contains no residual sugar, an intentional decision on behalf of Follador to enhance the inherent flavors in the wine and achieve a natural balance between acidity, sapidity and structure. The wine is made predominantly from the Glera varietal along with Verdi's, Perera and Bianchetta. It aims to exemplify and demonstrate the superior quality of the Cartizze area, which stands out more and more each year for its undeniable flavor profile and mineral quality.
Vinous: 90 Points
The 2018 Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore Extra Brut opens slowly in the glass, showing wild grasses and stone dust before giving way to hints of peach and pear. It's soft in texture and dry, with a fine bead of soothing bubbles ushering in mineral-tinged green apples. Though subtle, this finishes with poise and an almost-salty character, leaving the palate perfectly cleansed for another sip. The 2018 was produced using Metodo Classico.
