WINE AND GRAPPA PRODUCTION

A long winemaking tradition and one of the best wineries in Miane

Riva dei Tor is one of the best wineries in Miane, and has been producing wines and spumante since 1958. Immersed in the hills of the Valdobbiadene DOCG area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the company is located in a territory rich in history and tradition, and has been producing excellent wines that cannot be replicated elsewhere for decades.

Not all spumante wines are the same, and the biggest difference, clearly visible on the label, is their sugar content.

We produce four types of Prosecco Wine: BOTTLE-REFERMENTED, EXTRA BRUT, BRUT and EXTRA DRY

This short technical datasheet will allow you to understand the differences between the various types and the right pairings and serving temperatures to fully appreciate the quality of our wines.

VALDOBBIADENE DOCG EXTRA BRUT “ 92”

The “92” spumante wine has a sugar content of 6g/l. Its dry taste and sour notes make it the ideal companion for sushi, raw fish, shellfish, molluscs, tartar, or main courses of shellfish or fried fish. It also pairs well with mozzarella cheese or fresh cheese. This wine is suited to all types of fish dishes, especially baked, roasted or grilled fish.
With a serving temperature of 6/8 °C, the “92” is a fresh and fruity wine, with beautiful notes of orange blossom, citrus fruits, white peach and apple.

410FVII

Our Brut “bottiglia del fondatore” is a spumante wine with a sugar content of 11 g/l. It has a straw-yellow colour and a fine and persistent perlage (pearlability).
On the nose, it has hints of fruit such as pear and white-fleshed fruit accompanied by a hint of breadcrust. It is a very well-balanced wine where the aromatic bouquet blends well with the flavour and freshness on the palate.
This wine is well suited to accompany all courses of a meal, but in particular first or second courses based on sea or lake fish. Serving temperature of 6/8°C.
The label of this wine bears the original signature of Giuseppe Pederiva, who back in 1958 began this long journey that has led us to become what we are today! A tribute to the past…to tradition…to all the sacrifices made…a sweet memory of those who unfortunately are no longer with us.

“BEPI CUC” BOTTLE-REFERMENTED SPARKLING WINE

In the region of Veneto, this type of wine is commonly called ‘VIN COL FONDO’ (wine on the lees). “BEPI CUC” is obtained by refermentation in the bottle until the sugars contained in the wine are almost completely consumed (< 3 g/l). This type of wine has a small amount of yeast sediment (LEES) which imparts aroma and body to the product. The perfect serving temperature for the “BEPI CUC” is 6/8°C. It has a straw-yellow colour, a dry and pleasantly bitterish taste characterised by fresh and fruity hints combined with the typical “bread crust” notes. The product is continually evolving in terms of the bouquet and organoleptic properties, and pairs well with traditional dishes, appetisers of cold cuts and cheeses, tasty first courses and much more. Try it to believe it!

EXTRA DRY “BIGOL” SPUMANTE WINE

Our sweetest product is the extra dry “BIGOL” spumante wine. It has a sugar content of 12 g/l, and a bright and lively straw yellow colour.
The aromatic bouquet is very subtle with hints of unripe apples and acacia flowers, an enveloping taste and a fine and persistent perlage.
An excellent aperitif wine, it pairs well with delicate risottos, white meat and fresh cheese.
The particular name of “Bigol” refers to an ancient tool that was used during the harvest period to carry the vases full of grapes. It is a wooden pole with two hooks at the ends that the men carried on their shoulders.
Serving temperature of 6/8°C.

CICHET LIQUEUR

A liqueur made from wine, grappa, sour-cherry juice and natural flavourings. This liqueur, with an alcohol content of 24% Vol is an excellent digestif to be served after a meal.
In the Venetian culture, it can also be used for the so-called “RESENTIN” i.e. the practice of “rinsing out” the emptied coffee cup with a little bit of liqueur.

PROSECCO GRAPPA

This grappa is obtained through the distillation of the pomace or marc of Glera grapes from our vineyards. With an alcohol content of 40% Vol, this grappa is enriched with all the aromas of Glera grapes, which are also used to make our wine.
It has a harmonious taste, with a delicate flavour and a marked hint of flowers and a pleasant aftertaste of fruits such as pear and apple.
It can be enjoyed on its own or to spike your coffee.
