About this winery

Established in the Treviso region of Veneto in the years preceding Prosecco's international rise to fame, Ca di' Rajo uses the Glera grape variety to produce its renowned sparkling wines. A family business since the 1930s, this vineyard has become a showcase for traditional production methods, often neglected by larger producers.

Production notes

Lemoss represents the wine history of Treviso, even before Prosecco was born. Lemoss (in the Treviso dialect "le moss" means fizzy) is a semi sparkling wine made with Glera grapes, no added sugar and selected yeasts, which does a second fermentation in bottle; Its production method, called ancestral, does not include filtration. The yeasts, once fermetation is finished, remain on the bottom of the bottle, and this is where the Italian expression "col fondo" or the French "sur lie" (n the yeasts) come from. An intense scent of bread crust and acacia flowers, with notes of apple, lemon and grapefruit. A fresh wine, with a good structure, that can be drunk either clear or thick, according to your taste.

Tasting notes

A fresh wine, to be served as an aperitif or in combination with light vegetable and fish dishes.

James Suckling, (Vintage 2021)

A clean and crisp, prosecco-style sparkling here with aromas and flavors of lemon-meringue pie with a twist of sliced green apple and bitter lemon, too. Nicely balanced fizz and a delicious, creamy finish. Drink now.
