Selvaggio means wild - but in reality there is nothing wild about this rich and generous Prosecco, other than possibly the behaviour of Cheshire housewives as the evening draws in on yet another long lunch.
Production
Produced from Montresor's Vidussi estate in Friuli. With around 14g/l residual sugar - this is Extra Dry (rather than Brut) - a popular style in Italy for quality Prosecco.

Tasting notes
Fresh, delicate, floral aromas lead onto an appealing soft mousse. The textured palate has ripe stone fruit characters backed by minerality, depth and fresh citrus acidity.
Food match
Great aperitif and celebratory wine - but will also pair with grilled white meats and seafood dishes

Meet the producer
One of Verona’s historic houses, founded by Giacomo Montresor in 1892, with a reputation built on high quality, affordable Valpolicella and Amarone. In recent years the range has grown steadily with vineyards being developed in Friuli and northern Veneto, around Conegliano.
The winery was family-owned until 2018 when Montresor was acquired by Cevico, a co-operative group based in Emilia Romagna, with 2 highly regarded Veneto co-ops as co-investors. Since then a major investment programme has transformed the company – with modern production facilities and a new winemaking team rejuvenating quality across the board, while access to high quality grapes from the Veneto co-owners has enabled some excellent new wines to be developed.
