More About the 2023 CARPENÈ MALVOLTI EXTRA DRY PROSECCO SUPERIORE: From the steep, storied hills of Italy’s Prosecco heartland, the 2023 Carpenè Malvolti Extra Dry Prosecco emerges as a clear expression of place and legacy. Sourced from the Conegliano–Valdobbiadene zone, long regarded as the finest landscape for Prosecco, the wine reflects a region where elevation, exposure, and tradition converge. Here, Glera achieves its most refined balance, delivering brightness and elegance shaped as much by terrain as by time-honored practice. Carpenè Malvolti stands at the foundation of Prosecco’s history. Established in the 19th century, the estate played a formative role in defining Italian sparkling wine, marrying scientific rigor with regional identity. That legacy continues in the 2023 Extra Dry, crafted using the Charmat method to preserve freshness, aromatic purity, and vitality. The style favors precision and harmony, allowing fruit and structure to move together without excess. In the glass, the wine is pale straw with hints of green, releasing aromas of pear, apple, and soft citrus. The palate is supple and inviting, with gentle sweetness balanced by refreshing acidity and a fine, persistent mousse. Orchard fruit notes carry through to a clean, lively finish, making the wine both approachable and polished. It is Prosecco at its most authentic: celebratory yet composed, rooted in history, and effortless in its appeal.
