Interesting facts
Ruggeri, "Giustino B." Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG is an elegant sparkling wine created in honor of the winery's founder, Giustino Bisol. It is made from Glera (Prosecco) grapes grown in vineyards in the northern part of the Treviso province. Harvesting takes place in the second half of September, and at the winery, the grapes undergo fermentation in steel tanks at a temperature of 18 °C. Refermentation occurs in the spring of the year following the harvest at a temperature of 12-14 °C and lasts for 3 months.
About the Manufacturer
Ruggeri was founded by Giustino Bisol in 1950, whose family has been proud of rich winemaking traditions in the Valdobbiadene region. The Bisol family is known to have been growing grapes since 1542. In 1920, enologist Luigi Bisol built a winery in Montebelluna, and in 1950, Luigi's son, Giustino Bisol, established the Ruggeri winery and began producing sparkling wines from Prosecco and Cartizze grapes. In 1993, the winery was moved to a new large and ergonomically designed building. Ruggeri purchases grapes from 200 top estates, and thanks to the latest technical innovations, the entire harvest is processed within 10 days after picking. The berries are carefully selected, pressed, and fermented according to the latest enological standards. The Ruggeri winery has been repeatedly awarded prestigious prizes in winemaking both in Europe and worldwide. The chief enologist of the company, Paolo Bisol, became a celebrity during his lifetime due to his ability to create wines of unparalleled richness and quality.
