Producer Information

Villa Sandi is a majestic 1622 Palladian-style villa representing the confluence of art and architecture that has manifested itself in the Venetian landscape for many centuries. Today, the villa is headquarters to Tenuta Villa Sandi owned by Giancarlo Moretti Polegato and family. Rooted in tradition, the family has contributed in setting the pace for Prosecco’s reputation as a wine and production area while keeping extremely high quality with regard and respect for the environment with their strong commitments to sustainability. Benefiting from land suitable for growing both white and red varietals, Villa Sandi grows Glera grapes from each of the five Prosecco designations producing wines from the everyday approach-ability of DOC Treviso to Valdobbiadene Superiore DOCG to Cartizze DOCG, a cru made in the heart of the most prestigious Valdobbiadene area. Parts of the estate suitable for red grapes produce a small volume of Pinot Nero used to blend in Il Fresco Rosé. Pinot Grigio Delle Venezie DOC is sourced from vineyards in two regions: the Veneto which evoke freshness and pleasant acidity, and Friuli contributing body, fruit flavors and aromatic richness giving this wine an exceptional well-rounded and classic profile. Villa Sandi Prosecco and Pinot Grigio are complementary as aperitifs or with a wide range of cuisines positioning the brand very favorably among restaurants and wine bars.
