Anna Nardi, Perlage Wines

Perlage Winery: The Sparkling Story of Organic Prosecco

In September, we had the pleasure of welcoming Anna Nardi from Perlage Winery to share their passion for Prosecco.

The story of Perlage began in 1985, when the seven Nardi brothers, encouraged by their parents Tiziano and Afra, converted their vineyards to organic agriculture. It all started with the Riva Moretta vineyard, nestled in the heart of the Prosecco DOCG area.

Today, Perlage is internationally recognized as one of the leading producers of organic sparkling wine and among the few wineries crafting organic Prosecco in the prestigious Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG region. Since 2004, they’ve also embraced biodynamic practices, combining tradition with innovation.

Sustainability is at the core of Perlage—from carefully selecting soils for each grape variety to environmentally responsible farming, winemaking, and even the way wines reach customers.

Perlage wines are synonymous with elegance, purity, and passion. They reflect a balance of respect for tradition and creativity for the future—a harmony of vines, stories, discoveries, and craftsmanship.

Raise a glass of Perlage Prosecco, and you’ll taste not just a sparkling wine, but a philosophy built on respect, sustainability, and love for the land.

Jak Nash of Dog Point Vineyard — New Zealand’s largest certified organic vineyard and a family-owned pioneer of Marlborough wine — joined us for a few inspiring days out in the trade.

From Sauvignon Blanc to Pinot Noir – Dog Point Vineyard’s Organic Wines Shine

What an incredible few days hosting Jak Nash from the iconic Dog Point Vineyard in Marlborough, New Zealand!

From inspiring trade tastings to customer visits that sparked meaningful conversations, the week was filled with connection, learning and a true celebration of what makes Dog Point so special.

For those unfamiliar, Dog Point Vineyard is not only one of Marlborough’s oldest privately established vineyards, but also New Zealand’s largest certified organic vineyard (certified by BioGro NZ). Family-owned and located on the beautiful hill slopes of the Southern Valleys, Dog Point has become a pioneer of organic and low-intervention winemaking in Marlborough.

The vineyard produces four exceptional wines:

  • a vibrant Sauvignon Blanc,

  • three barrel-fermented wines using natural wild yeasts — the acclaimed Section 94 Sauvignon Blanc (fermented in older French oak barrels), an elegant Chardonnay, and a refined Pinot Noir.

All wines are vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free, reflecting Dog Point’s commitment to a sustainable, low-intervention ethos. Above all, the family’s focus is on crafting wines of uncompromising quality — wines that are built to age gracefully and cellar beautifully.

Of course, no trip would be complete without some fantastic food and wine pairings along the way — the perfect opportunity to highlight the craftsmanship and character of these wines.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at tastings, shared their passion, and made these few days such a success. We can’t wait to do it all again soon!
