Saturday 21 June the event dedicated to the lively native Euganean bubbles returns, with the preview presentation of the new version on the lees.
On Saturday 21 June , from 4pm to 10pm, Serprino dei Colli Euganei will celebrate the beginning of summer at the Abbazia di Praglia (Teolo, PD) with the second edition of “Vulcanico Serprino” . The great tasting of Serprino dei Colli Euganei will be hosted in the hall of the conference centre of one of the symbolic places of the Padua area, full of religious and wine history. Twenty-five companies will be present with their stands, which will offer visitors a total of more than forty interpretations of Serprino for tasting, offering a wide panorama of the typical Euganean bubbles in the semi-sparkling and sparkling types , as well as in the experimental version Sui Lieviti , recently approved by the Assembly of Members of the Consortium for the Protection of Colli Euganei Wines and in the process of being introduced into the production regulations. There will be a refreshment point for the public and masterclasses dedicated to this volcanic, distinctive and lively wine will be organised, as well as cooking shows based on the pairing of Serprino with summer dishes based on some of the Euganean agricultural and food excellences, such as melon and Veneto Berico-Euganeo ham .
Serprino dei Colli Euganei is the only native wine with a controlled designation of origin in Veneto specializing in the sparkling type. This product is able to be transversal to all consumer groups thanks to its bubbles and notes of apple, pear, peach, which make it ideal both for an aperitif and for a summer dinner. Obtained from the grape of the same name, Serprino is one of the riches of the biodiversity of the Euganean Hills, protected as a Regional Park and recently recognized as a UNESCO MAB Biosphere Reserve , and represents one of the souls of the savoir faire of local winemakers, who over the centuries have perfected the art of producing fine and persistent, versatile sparkling wines, characterized by very fine bubbles.
Access to “Vulcanico Serprino” is free. Tastings are available at the producers’ stands upon purchase of the tasting kit, available at the entrance.
Vulcanico Serprino is organized by the Consorzio Tutela Vini Colli Euganei , as part of the initiatives foreseen by the strategic plan to launch Serprino dei Colli Euganei.
