Philosophy
Ours is a true story of sacrifice, hard work and privilege
In 1968, the company took its name from Angelo Bortolin, who continues his father Desiderio’s project, taking care of the vineyards. Angelo is a brave man, who sees far and continues his father’s work, exposing himself in first person.
In 1993 he decided to involve his children in his company: Cristina, Paola and Desiderio. Angelo was still a boy, but he had the foresight to involve the new generation: since 2010 his son Desiderio has become the new cheff of this winery.
Today, Angelo, born in 1938, is still an inexhaustible source of ideas and a daily support for everyone. He is still the first to arrive in the vineyard in the morning and the last to leave the winery.
Only the fruit of our land.
In 2009 the Conegliano Valdobbiadene appellation underwent an epochal change. The word Prosecco, since then, no longer identifies a vine, but a very large territory. For this reason the company decided to stop and start again, to continue to give dignity to a land, a passion and a job, even before a wine. This is why Bortolin Angelo Spumanti proposes only Valdobbiadene D.O.C.G. Only the fruit of our land.
Our heritage is humanity
"Our heritage is humanity": dear friends, this is our slogan.
It is not a pay off planned by marketing studios, but it is the essence of our philosophy of life. It is the declaration of love for our family, for our team and - above all - for Valdobbiadene.
It is the story of our passion for its Vertical vineyards, for all those women and men who work there, every day, for centuries. People used to climbing and fatigue, guardians of an immense heritage of values and culture. Daily stories of challenges, of renunciations, of work done by hand under the sun and the rain: stories of a heroic community, like our viticulture.
Valdobbiadene is the beating heart, it is the starting point and the ambitious final goal. All the commitment, all the passion of Bortolin Angelo Spumanti is for Valdobbiadene. UNESCO has valued and rewarded the added value of these breathtaking views, these unique shores, this community full of passion, respect, history and culture. Because our heritage has always been humanity.
Shape
The Bottle
Angelo was pruning a vine with a particular shape and great generosity in the fruits, to which he was particularly fond. Desiderio had searched for his father for a long time because he did not know where he was. Finally he found him: Angelo showed him excited his favourite plant.
It was at that moment that Desiderio had the intuition: he would do anything to find the best possible container to enclose his love for that vine.
Here then was born our bottle, whose shape, flat in the center, is our message to carry the work of man in the vineyard inside the container that contains the fruit of that work.
Label
To create the labels of our wines, we have done what we have always loved to do.
We were inspired by Valdobbiadene. Angelin Beo recalls summer: we find on the label that intense, dark green, typical of our lush, mature and leafy vineyards. The label of Desiderio interprets autumn: the leaves turn towards yellow ochre, become crisp and complete their photosynthesis cycle. In winter, Valdobbiadene dedicates its quiet side: for this, Barch dresses in orange, like our nature that wants to rest and recover energy. The labels of our other Valdobbiadene go deep and are inspired by the peculiarities of our land, from which everything starts: from the earthy brown of Extra Dry, to the black of Brut, which refers to the organic substance and humus characteristic of these vineyards.
Up to the particular shade of grey-blue, which we find in the "Salìs", the peculiar soil of Cartizze.
Sommaval is proud of its origins and roots: its label, ice-tinted with mother-of-pearl touches, recalls the color of the stones.
The message in the bottle
Our back labels go beyond the technical data sheet, which helps to understand the wine but does not tell the individual bottling. For this reason we have put in each bottle a QR Code that brings you to a web page where you can enter the lot number. You will access to the identity card of that specific bottle: it will tell you when the harvest began, when the second fermentation of this sparkling wine began, when it was bottled, how many bottles have been produced and all its specific organoleptic indications.
The Bortolin Angelo Spumanti bottle is patented, unique and inimitable.
The Bortolin Angelo Spumanti bottle is patented, unique and inimitable. Its sinuous shape, in addition to giving a foretaste to all the elegance of the fine perlage of the Valdobbiadene D.O.C.G., allows you to serve the wine with even greater grip.
Content
Our land has unique characteristics, which are told in our wine.
If you listen to him, you will, too. At a distance of a few hundred meters the grapes change, because there are different slopes, exposure to the sun and the soil. Even the plants have a different age, and different is the hand of the farmer who works in that vineyard. They change the moments of pruning, tying the branches, and of disbudding. We present our wines, born from all these particularities, which make them unique.

Tasting is involving
Before proposing the tasting, we introduce you to our wine. For us, tasting does not only mean identifying a perfume or a taste, but accompanying you to imagine and remember, because what you feel on the nose and palate will open a drawer of memory towards something that you may have forgotten.
