This is a classic example of a Col Fondo Prosecco - made in the classic Champagne method with second fermentation in the bottle and not disgorged - the lees remain in the bottle (fondo=lees). Crisp, we'll balanced acidity and deep flavor. Lemon and pear. Brut, excellent quality with much more flavor than a standard Prosecco — 6 years ago

Sparklefest 2016. One of the more interesting offerings. Not quite col fondo, but all of its excitement. — 8 years ago
It is a Prosecco Superiore Brut who does ageing on the yeasts at the end of secondary fermentation in the bottle (Metodo Classico). My dear friend Silvano Follador firmly believes to the hig potential of secondary fermentation with disgorging instead of Charmat or "sur lie" (col fondo) method which may be sometimes too sweet or even not stable because the presence of the work-in-progress yeast. Acidity, cleanness and savoury sensations that's what Silvano's steadily looking for in his Prosecco and I must admit these are all features that I found for instance, in this Dosaggio Zero (pas dosè) 2010 vintage, who left right on my mouth a genuine feeling of citrus and loquats freshly picked from the branch and squeezed directly into the glass. — 8 years ago

So this picture is of their booth at Vinitaly- but I can't get enough of the col fondo, by destefani. Leesy complexity, subtle citrus. Wish I had a glass right now. — 11 years ago
Cloudy, zippy, well-balanced, and an excellent value prosecco! Will definitely be buying more of this. — 6 years ago

Just the right speed. Metallic as hell, with alcohol way back in the mix. It's actually like a flat col fondo. Slovenians make damn good wine. — 8 years ago
Very nice, dry, Un filtered col fondo style lambrusco. Pale and delicate color. Great for lunch. Getting ready for my trip to Emilia-romagna tomorrow morning! — 9 years ago
A really dry Prosecco, at minimum with sugars, lightly bitter in the finish. Rifermented in the bottle as the traditional method used in the past, unfiltered, that's why they call it "Col Fondo". Very good. — 11 years ago
