Sipping a glass of sparkling wine and sharing its pleasure with family or friends is a joyful ritual that becomes even more essential during the holidays. Col Vetoraz’s Christmas is an invitation to celebrate conviviality and to tell the story—through its bubbles—of a unique and generous land, capable of transforming excellence into emotion.
This year, the winery is once again preparing for one of the most intense moments of the season, with the goal of offering the utmost in quality and refinement. In the glass, every sparkling wine encapsulates the deep essence of the territory and the values that guide daily work in the cellar, translating into an unforgettable sensory experience of harmony, balance, and elegance. The most anticipated celebration of the year would not be the same without the toast of good wishes: a simple gesture, yet one that unites, excites, and celebrates.
Once again this Christmas, on Italian tables, Col Vetoraz’s superior bubbles will best interpret the excellence of Valdobbiadene DOCG, sublimely represented by two iconic labels: Valdobbiadene DOCG Superiore di Cartizze and Valdobbiadene DOCG Brut Cuvée 5, authentic expressions of the identity and elegance that have always distinguished the Treviso-based winery.
The Holiday Bubbles: Two Iconic Labels by Col Vetoraz
Valdobbiadene DOCG Superiore di Cartizze originates from the finest vineyards of the namesake area adjacent to the winery’s headquarters, whose limited extension (just over 100 hectares) restricts production to small quantities. The grapes grow on soils of clay, marl, and sandstone—components that ensure an unusual concentration of aromas and remarkable salinity. Velvety and aromatic, its perlage is fine and elegant, and its bouquet is intense, marked by the delicate mix of flowers and ripe fruit.
It pairs beautifully with Venetian-style liver or sarde in saor, as well as with South Tyrolean Tirtlan or Emilian tigelle. A surprising and original pairing is with the typical Venetian Sopressa: the delicate sweetness of Superiore di Cartizze perfectly balances the richness of the salami, delivering a unique and harmonious tasting experience.
A sensation of great harmony is also found in Valdobbiadene DOCG Cuvée 5 Extra Brut, obtained from the selection of five vineyards among 102 on the foothills of the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG area. These grapes possess specific characteristics, vinified separately, and only later blended to create cuvées of extraordinary complexity and depth. Despite its low residual sugar—just 5 g/l—this sparkling wine retains rounded expressions, fully respecting the distinctive traits of production: balance, harmony, and elegance, while demonstrating a highly versatile character.
Perfect with shellfish, crustaceans, or fine fish, it is also ideal with refined appetizers such as burrata mousse with caviar or raw crustaceans, pairing perfectly with the salty notes of the former and the sweet nuances of the latter. At the heart of the holidays, Col Vetoraz invites you to toast with the authentic elegance of its bubbles, a living expression of a unique territory and of expertise that transforms every day into pleasure to be shared.
