Astoria

Astoria is one of the best known and most famous brands in the historical Prosecco di Conegliano and Valdobbiadene area. It is characterized by its innovative appearance, always in step with the times and with the tastes of a young audience. The company was founded in 1987 by Paolo and Giorgio Polegato, children of a historic family of winemakers from the Valdobbiadene and Conegliano area. A territory that has always been dedicated to the cultivation of vines, which represents the qualitative summit of the vast world of Prosecco. The vines are grown on the steep slopes of the splendid hilly exposures close to the Prealps. There are about forty hectares managed by the Astoria winery in this extraordinary area of Veneto. A mosaic of vineyards set among the woods, which form a unique landscape for beauty and integration between the patient work of man and nature. The cool, breezy climate and the predominantly calcareous soils proved to be perfect for the needs of Glera, the most typical grape of the area.

It is a heroic, difficult, tiring viticulture, which requires great commitment in terms of time and energy, but pays off with grapes with an intense aromatic profile and great freshness, perfect for being sparkling in autoclave. The Martinotti or Charmat Method, in fact, allows to obtain sparkling wines that keep intact the primary aromas and aromas of the grapes, giving a pleasantly fragrant and fruity sip. It is precisely these characteristics of immediacy and ease of drinking that have made Prosecco so famous and loved all over the world. But Astoria is not only Prosecco Superiore di Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, it also produces Prosecco DOCG on the Asolo Hills, another area of high quality sparkling wines that is establishing itself among the best excellences in the sector. To complete the range of wines, the reds, another specialty of the Veneto region, could not be missing. Astoria produces red wines on the Colli di Conegliano with the most classic international vines and in Valpolicella with the native vines of the area: Corvina, Convinone and Rondinella. The labels of great wines such as Ripasso and Amarone, among the most loved by foreign consumers, are born on the Valpolicella estate.
