The days grow longer, the sun accompanies the evenings until late, and every occasion becomes the perfect excuse to spend time together. June officially opens the most anticipated season of the year. Tables move outdoors, dishes become fresher and lighter, and conversations stretch all the way to sunset. And inevitably, at the heart of these moments, there is a toast. These are the moments that make summer truly special.
Three ways to experience the summer aperitif:
Every group has its own style, every moment its own wine.
For those who love authentic freshness: CARIS
By the poolside, when the heat calls for something extremely fresh and thirst-quenching, the star is Caris. It is made from pure Glera grapes grown in the Caranto soils between San Pietro di Feletto and Susegana. It is a Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Brut with a feature that makes it unique: zero grams of residual sugar. The clay-rich soil gives structure and character, while the aromatic profile remains elegant and delicate, with notes of white peach, green apple and pear. On the palate, its most authentic soul emerges: freshness, minerality, and a pleasant savory note that lingers.
To best enhance its qualities, imagine it paired with a summer table of simple, genuine flavors: crostini with burrata and lemon zest, lime-flavoured prawn tartare, mozzarella and cherry tomato skewers, or a fresh seafood salad. Pairings that highlight its vibrant freshness and make it the perfect companion for an elegant yet relaxed aperitif with friends. An essential, refined aperitif, perfect for those seeking the purest expression of the territory.
For those who love tradition: NONNO
Some bottles tell a story. Nonno Carlo was created as a tribute to Carlo, founder of our winery and the first guardian of a passion that continues to this day. Produced from pure Glera grapes from the hills of San Pietro di Feletto, it represents the wine that best tells our roots. Aromas of Golden apple, pear and acacia flowers lead into a balanced, fresh and pleasantly harmonious sip.
It is the wine that needs no special occasion: it is the one that makes every moment special. It is the wine that pleases everyone, imagined at the center of a summer table shared with friends and family, alongside warm focaccia, creamy burrata with confit cherry tomatoes, delicate cured meats and grilled vegetables. Simple flavors meant for sharing, evoking tradition and the conviviality of summer evenings. Because some traditions never go out of style.
For those seeking a toast full of color: GIOIA
Summer is also lightness. It is the color of sunset reflected in glasses, laughter flowing through conversations, and moments that deserve to be celebrated even without a special reason. Gioia, dedicated to the birth of the family’s first daughter, is an Extra Dry rosé sparkling wine that offers aromas of pomegranate and rosehip, with a soft, delicate and surprisingly fresh taste. Its pink color makes it perfect for the most carefree summer aperitifs.
Perfect to accompany the end of summer with fresh fruit skewers, berry cheesecake, biscuits and small pastries, or simple desserts shared under evening lights. A glass that ends the day with lightness, yet always leaves you wanting another sip—because every summer needs a little Gioia.
A summer to experience in the winery
If the most beautiful summer moments are born from sharing, the best place to experience them is where everything originates. The hills of Conegliano Valdobbiadene, the vineyards, the winery and the tastings are an invitation to slow down and spend a few hours immersed in the beauty of the territory. Here every bottle tells a different story, but they all share something in common: they are made to be shared.
We look forward to welcoming you to the winery to taste our wines, stroll through the hills and find the perfect toast to accompany your summer. And before we say goodbye, mark a date on your calendar: July 10th.
After the early summer toasts, we are preparing for a special evening full of music, fun, and a touch of nostalgia. Our 90s Party is coming, complete with a themed dress code for those who want to fully immerse themselves in the atmosphere. Dig out your high-waisted jeans, bold colors, oversized shirts and everything that reminds you of that unforgettable decade.
We’ll bring the bubbles, you bring the fun.
See you soon among our hills.
