About this winery

Nestled between the Dolomite Mountains and the Adriatic Sea are the steep hills of Valdobbiadene in northern Veneto, the heart of Prosecco Superiore. Ancient documents place the Bisol family tending to this area’s heroic viticulture since 1542. Today, Gianluca Bisol is the President and CEO, and his brother Desiderio Bisol is the Chief Enologist and Technical Director. It was their grandfather Desiderio"Jeio" Bisol who recognized that the hills had different soils and his dream was to capture...

Tasting notes

On the nose: fresh and elegant, with a well-proportioned wave of meadow flowers that yields to a bouquet of delicious fruit. In the mouth: the perfume-like fruit offers notes of pear and apple, while the rich, precise flavour completes the impression of harmony.

July 2021

Apple and fresh lime on the nose with chalky mineral that turns to nice fresh-cream flavor on the palate. Tight and dry with a relaxed fizz. Pleasant, lime-cream finish.

August 2022 (Vintage 2021)

Pear-fruit nose with green apples, nectarines and chalk that give an upbeat, almost peachy accent to the palate. Creamy and fresh, with a silky mousse. Lots of green apples in the finish.

Anthony Gismondi, November 2020 (Vintage 2019)

Crede is local dialect for the clay-laden soils in the municipality of Valdobbiadene. The ancient slopes were once under the sea before inching back up over time into the hilly vineyards of Prosecco Superiore DOCG. The clay plays a role in avoiding the effects of drought and preserving acidity. Crede is hand-harvested from 250 meters altitude, is 85 percent glera, and comes with bright yellow tones. The nose is reminiscent of wildflowers and wet stones. The attack is fresh and clean with minimal residual sugar, adding some weight and fullness without a big sugary effect. Apples and pears and minerality round out a crisp, clean finish. Perfect for the patio.
