The Climb
Winemaking at Azienda Agricola Ca'Vittoria sits with Francesco Carpene as a practice of timing and control, where vineyard material is translated into bottle with as little noise as possible. The work reads as method rather than display: decisions made for clarity, seasonal judgment, and the steady accumulation of detail. In that frame, Carpene’s role suggests a career built on measured progress, with each stage of production asking for the same discipline—turning fruit, site, and season into wine that holds its shape.

Signature
Francesco Carpene’s signature wines sit firmly in the sparkling category, with Prosecco Brut, Prosecco Rosé, Adri Brut Rosè Prosecco, and Costa dei Peschi - Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG forming the core of the lineup.

Prosecco Brut signals a drier, cleaner expression; Prosecco Rosé adds color and a different layer of nuance; Adri Brut Rosè Prosecco extends that rosé line; and Costa dei Peschi - Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG places the range inside a designation that defines the wine’s technical and geographic frame. The group reads as a set of wines built for restraint, not excess.
