Raphael Dal Bo
Raphael Dal Bo produces Prosecco from Veneto's Conegliano-Valdobbiadene region, where the Glera grape thrives on steep hillsides and calcareous soils. The winery's portfolio centers on three expressions of Prosecco Superiore: a Millesimato Extra Dry, a Selezione Extra Dry, and a Millesimato Brut. Each captures the region's signature character—bright acidity, delicate stone fruit, and fine perlage—with the precision that defines quality Prosecco production. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator have rated these releases, recognizing their balance and refinement. The Extra Dry bottlings offer the slight residual sweetness that complements the wine's natural freshness, while the Brut leans toward a drier profile. Prosecco from this northeast corner of Italy represents an accessible entry point to Italian sparkling wine, yet one capable of genuine complexity when sourced from the Superiore designation and hillside vineyards.
