Not Just Prosecco: The Art of Tasting with La Corte di Marga's Sommeliers

Tasting a glass of Prosecco in Miane is not a simple toast: it's a journey through time and space. Here, amidst the embroidered hills of Valdobbiadene and the steep slopes of Miane, wine is not a product, but a legacy. The Court of Marga, We have decided to elevate this experience by transforming it into a guided narrative from our Sommeliers, to reveal what lies behind the world's most famous label.

An Epic Terroir: Where Stone Becomes Silk

The secret of our Prosecco lies in the unique microclimate of the morainic hills. The soils, rich in minerals and caressed by the winds descending from the Prealps to meet the breezes of the Adriatic, create the perfect habitat for the Glera.

But it's the conformation of the land that makes the difference: viticulture here is defined as “heroic”. Each bunch is tended by hand on slopes that defy gravity. It is this contrast between the toil of the earthStoneand the aromatic elegance of wineSilkto make the DOC and DOCG wines from these areas an inimitable excellence, protected by the brand but above all by the dedication of local producers.

Beyond the Perlage: A Journey Through the Great Whites, Reds, and Sweet Wines of Miane

If you think the UNESCO Prosecco Hills speak only one language, prepare to change your mind. Behind the exuberance of the world's most famous bubbles, lies a soul made of Excellent still wines, Rossi of structure e raisins which are real liquid poems. A The Court of Marga, We believe that true luxury is discovery, which is why our wine tastings are a journey along the less-trodden paths of Venetian winemaking.

The Rediscovered Whites: Verdiso, Bianchetta and Perera

Before Glera became queen, our slopes were the domain of ancient grape varieties, today jealously guarded by “custodian” winemakers.

  • Verdiso The rebellious white, with its marked acidity and citrus notes, perfect for those seeking the “Stone” and pure minerality.
  • The Bianchetta and the Perera: Grape varieties that lend a “silky” texture to the glass with notes of apple and wild pear, often used to add complexity but capable of shining in purity with unparalleled elegance.

The Red Heart of the Pre-Alps

Not everyone knows that our region can also speak up with its reds. The calcareous soils and the significant temperature fluctuations are the ideal cradle for varieties such as Merlot and the Cabernet, which here take on an almost mountainous refinement. But the real gem is the Colli di Conegliano RossoA wise blend that rests in wood, releasing notes of small red fruits and noble spices, the ideal pairing for game dishes and the aged cheeses of our tradition.

Liquid Gold: Dessert Wines for Meditation

To finish with a flourish, the region offers us world rarities. The Refrontolo Passito (even loved by Mozart) and the Torchiato di Fregona These are patient wines. Grapes left to wither on racks for months, transforming into an amber nectar capable of capturing the summer sun's warmth and autumn's sweetness. It is the “wine of silence,” to be sipped slowly by the fireplace in our courtyard.
