Winemaker: Vittorio Navacchia  

Azienda Agrícola Tre Monti was started in the early 1960s by Sergio Navacchia and his wife Thea, who was the real driving force behind the winery until her death in 1989. Sons Vittorio and David now run the show, with the help of their father. The grapes for this unique bubbly come from a single vineyard in the bucolic hills of Imola, near Modena in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region. Glowing and golden, with super fine, almost transparent, bubbles, and a symphony of fruit and flowers: green apple, tart plum, chamomile, wild flowers with an underlying white peach/green almond thing. This is your house bubbly for spring sipping and party hopping – a much more interesting, a vastly cleaner (than most) Prosecco option.
