Translating as ‘small cellar’ in the local dialect, Canevel is a very hands-on operation based in the historic heart of Prosecco production at Valdobbiadene-Conegliano. Canevel was partially acquired by the Masi group in 2016. Expert production, including precise yeast strain selection, the use of small, pressurised fermenters and long and slow fermentations mean these wines often stand above their peers.
Canevel’s entry Prosecco is 100% Glera from a combination of estate fruit and high-quality sources from the extended DOC area. Soft pressing and slow processing via the charmat method make for a pure and gentle style. At 12.6 g/L residual this is an Extra Dry bottling.
