Tuesday 13 August 2024, National Prosecco Day: Raise a toast to the remaining days of summer and transport yourself to the sundrenched valleys of Italy with Della Vite Prosecco. Whether you're celebrating at home or in town with friends, DV is on hand to take you back to where it all started: the stunning vineyards of Valdobbiadene, where Della Vite was created and La Dolce Vita is present in every sip. Whether you're creating cocktails for friends, hosting the perfect al fresco picnics, or enjoying wildly delicious sundowners in a bar in London, DV has you covered. La Dolce Vita just levelled up. Salute!
Grab your Prosecco Day essentials: delectable antipasti, Poppy's favourite pasta dish and endless Perello Olives: be transported to the vineyards of Valdobbiadene and the sundrenched valleys of Italy in an instant. Della Vite is produced in the beautiful upper valleys of Cartizze, just north of Venice, on the edge of the Dolomites. This small but passionate local population is becoming known by insiders in the wine world for one thing: surprising, exceptional wine-making. The best locally grown and hand-picked grapes, traditional winecraft with cutting-edge production techniques, incorporating solar power, vegan-certified ceramic filters and a state-of-the art lab that is completely unique, makes for a Prosecco that stands its ground against champagne.
Della Vite's essential cocktails this year are the Italian Sunset Spritz, Rose Bloom Spritz and for the ultimate in aperitvo, the Della Vite Select Spritz. Easy to make and even easier to enjoy. Cin cin!

About the provenance of Prosecco
D.O.C (Denominazione di Origin Controllata) and D.O.C.G (Denominazione di Origin Controllata e Garantita) are trusted markers of provenance and quality. Under Italian wine law, D.O.C G is the highest designation of quality among Italian wines.
Della Vite Prosecco Superiore D.O.C.G
Rich and extra-dry with a highly mineral palate that lingers, the Prosecco Superiore D.O.C.G is characterised by hints of crostini and chamomile. The palate is clean and bright with a mix of gooseberry and date notes within small, creamy bubbles. Perfect for mixing in cocktails. The liquid is fermented for 60 days - normally Prosecco is fermented for 30 days - Della Vite doubles the length of this process for 60, making for a smoother liquid with a long finish. 11.5% ABV.
Della Vite DOC Treviso Rosé Prosecco
The Prosecco Ros
é is elegant, pale coral pink in colour with an aromatic nose of freshly crushed wild berries and rhubarb. A bright, clean palate with delicate fruit flavours balanced by a creamy texture and fine bubbles, leading to a long, smooth finish thanks to the extra long fermentation process of 90 days. 11.5% ABV.
