Chloe Wine Collection Launches Prosecco DOC

09 Sep 2015 --- San Francisco, /PRNewswire/ -- Following the great success of the first four wines in the Chloe Wine Collection, which debuted in April 2014, Chloe Prosecco DOC, $17 SRP, launches nationally this month. Under the direction of Senior Winemaker Georgetta Dane, International Women's Wine Competition Best Woman Winemaker 2012, the newest addition joins Chloe Sonoma County Chardonnay, Valdadige DOC Pinot Grigio, Red No. 249 North Coast blend and Monterey County Pinot Noir.

Chloe Prosecco is made from 100% Glera grapes from roughly 60 acres of vineyards divided among a handful of small growers primarily in the Asolo area of the Prosecco DOC. During the second half of September, the clusters of grapes are harvested by hand and immediately taken to the cellar, where they are gently crushed and pressed. Initial fermentation takes place in 100% stainless steel at controlled temperatures. Secondary fermentation for this fresh and lively Prosecco takes place in pressure tanks in the traditional Charmat method.
