Sophisticated and versatile, Cá Salina’s Valdobbiadene Prosecco enhances every occasion.

Cá Salina was created by Riccardo Bortolin in the 1970s, and in 1993 Gregorio Bortolin built his new winery, which has given him complete independence over his wine production. Today, the winery is still a family operation and is run by Gregorio and Neva along with their two sons, Michele and Massimo Bortolin. The philosophy that greatly contributes to the success of this winery lies in two Latin words – “Gaudium Hospitis,” which translates to “the joy of the guest.”

The warm welcome offered to guests by the Bortolin family is next to none – they truly make guests feel like part of the family and embody what it means to provide great hospitality by always aiming to ensure every guest enjoys the best possible experience. Gregorio added even more to his winery in 2011 with the opening of fantastic new tasting rooms where they can welcome guests who are eager to sample their delicious wines.

In Valdobbiadene the hills are so steep that it is nearly impossible to use tractors on the vineyards. All of the grapes are harvested by hand, carried to the very top of the extremely steep hills and then loaded into the grape gondola. Talk about a labor of love – when we left Cá Salina we had a newfound respect for the farmers that work in the area and a special appreciation for the wines they produce.

The Bortolin family believes in utilizing innovation in their winemaking, while maintaining tradition in order to guarantee the highest quality of Cá Salina wines. They respect the land they work with and even with forward-thinking techniques the land is never compromised, and the family makes sure to never interfere with the natural beauty of the area. The Valdobbiadene hills where the Cá Salina winery sits received DOCG status in 2009, which is the highest quality of Prosecco that is exclusively produced in the Northeast regions of Italy. Cá Salina produces a few thousand cases of fine wine every year, including Brut, Dry, and Extra Dry Valdobbiadene Proseccos as well as two incredible sparkling Rosé wines. Each bottle is satisfyingly refreshing and crisp with floral and fruity aromas.
