La Marca

La Marca operates in the Prosecco Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG zone in Italy's Veneto region, producing sparkling wines from this prestigious appellation. This area represents the historic heartland of Prosecco production, where the Glera grape reaches its finest expression in the hills between the towns of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene.

The Prosecco Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG designation, established in 2009, covers a relatively small area of steep hillside vineyards where traditional Prosecco production methods have been refined over centuries. The zone's unique microclimate, characterized by significant temperature variations between day and night, combined with the area's diverse soils ranging from clay to limestone, creates ideal conditions for Glera cultivation. Wines from this DOCG typically display greater complexity and finesse compared to Prosecco from broader appellations.

La Marca's current offering focuses on Extra Dry Prosecco made from 100% Glera grapes, showcasing the variety's characteristic fresh fruit flavors and fine perlage. The Extra Dry style contains slightly more residual sugar than Brut, typically resulting in a softer, more approachable sparkling wine that balances acidity with subtle sweetness.
