Dedicated to Giustino Bisol, who founded the winery in 1950, this sparkling wine is the fruit of extensive trials and experiments with particular selections and techniques, from the vines to the bottle. The Giustino B. therefore embodies the living expression of the experience and determination in the search for the very best and of the passionate dedication to the grape itself (traditionally called Prosecco).
Giustino B. is receiving constantly the Tre Bicchieri del Gambero Rosso at every vintage, making the Ruggeri winery the only one in the world of Prosecco to be awarded the prestigious star award from Gambero Rosso.
Schild Estate Wines are created with an authenticity and passion that comes from generations of a family who have made their home in the Southern Barossa.
This wine is dedicated to “Alma Schild”, who raised a family of eight children in primitive conditions whilst supporting her husband Ben in establishing the Schild family vineyards and is a testament to her understanding, perseverance and sheer hard work. Sourced from the family’s finest parcel of Chardonnay off the Moorooroo Vineyard near Rowland Flat, the goal for our winemakers here has been to produce a wine which is varietally strong, retains its element of refreshingness, but possesses interest and complexity for the drinker. Varying degrees of oak barrel and stainless steel use, lees stirring and malolactic fermentation are all used in an effort to make a wine “with no arms and legs sticking out” and in which “Alma Schild” would be proud.

Brioso means “a fervent love of challenge” and expresses a passionate spirit to create a wine that reaches the most sublime quality.
