Duca di Dolle Nino Valdobbiadene Frizzante

The ancient 16th-century monastery surrounded by 70-year-old vineyards of Duca di Dolle is located in Rolle, a tiny village in the heart of the Prosecco Superiore D.O.C.G. hills of Conegliano-Valdobbiadene, which have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2019. The estate has ancient origins: an unspoiled oasis of natural beauty and tranquility, where one can enjoy a unique and captivating experience that combines history and traditions with taste and innovation. The Duca di Dolle estate has deep historical roots. The monastery from the 16th century was already a center of winemaking, now extending over 75 hectares of vineyards, forests, meadows, and pastures. Firmly believing in enhancing the value and protecting the charming Rolle area, a FAI point for landscape protection, as well as in ecological sustainability, the estate's owners wanted to keep this area as unpolluted as possible. A true oasis of silence and nature, immersed in the tranquility of the hills. Later, the estate passed into the hands of the Brandolini family until the first half of the 20th century when it became the property of the peasant poet Nino Mura. This unusual character, an amateur poet with a passion for nature and culture, opened this place in the 1950s and 1960s to selected friends, such as poets Giovanni Comisso and Andrea Zanzotto, with whom he enjoyed joyful evenings. It was in 1974 that Antonio Bisola had the opportunity to meet Mura, from whom he then purchased the entire estate, which, thanks to careful restoration work, was finally improved. Indeed, Borgo di Rolle, which Zanzotto himself called a postcard sent by the gods, was declared the first FAI point in Italy for landscape protection. In 2011, Duca di Dolle was acquired by the Bacchini family, who, coming from the world of research and development, immediately decided to focus on innovation, product quality, and ecological sustainability. Since 2015, the estate's area has increased by another 53 hectares through vineyards, forests, meadows, and pastures: the Bacchini family's investments in improving and protecting the charming Rolle area. All the grapes are estate-grown, with no outside suppliers, and all work, from pruning to harvesting, is done by hand with lower yields per hectare than required by specifications.
