A Rive Runs Through It

There is Prosecco, and then there is Adami Brut Prosecco Superiore DOCG—a rare, 100% estate, single-vineyard wine from a benchmark producer that Vinous has crowned “one of Prosecco’s best.” This 2019 Col Credas is a terroir-driven, small production sparkler that utterly overdelivers for its bargain price.

An serious Prosecco through and through, its rich mousse belies a delicate, persistent bead. The wisteria and acacia blossom bouquet gives pause enough to slowly savor, while notes of apple and pear finally prove irresistible. Richly flavored yet remarkably refreshing on the palate, white peach and crushed stone get an elegant dusting of anise spice through the elegant, bone-dry finish.

Just like a grower-Champagne house, the Adami family owns far more of their own vineyards than almost any of their peers, while managing 100% of production to ensure quality. In Vinous’ last Prosecco tasting report, critic Ian D'Agata wrote, “As is almost always the case, Adami's was one of the best lineups of Proseccos I tasted this year,” but we think the family continues to especially knock it out of the park with their single-vineyard Rive bottlings like Col Credas.

Rive is the local dialect for the region’s steep hillside vineyards. The very best DOCG-designated wines come from their precarious slopes which have a striking topography more akin to the Mosel or Douro Valley than the relative flatlands of their undesignated Prosecco cousins. Of all the bottles of Prosecco produced annually, less than .5% (yes, ½ of a percent) are from the Rive.

This Col Credas is truly great, offering an unmistakable minerality and sophistication that evokes the wild beauty of the vineyard from which it sprang.
