This significant accolade recognizes the wine’s excellence, its deep connection to the Refrontolo terroir, and the dedicated work of the De Stefani family.

The De Stefani estate takes great pride and satisfaction in this achievement: their Rive di Refrontolo Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Brut Millesimato has earned the *Tre Bicchieri*—the highest honor bestowed by Gambero Rosso’s Vini d’Italia guide.

This prestigious milestone places the label among the very best in Italian winemaking, rewarding a corporate philosophy consistently focused on the highest quality and respect for the unique identity of the Refrontolo territory. The Rive di Refrontolo Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Brut Millesimato impressed the tasting panels with its extraordinary elegance, aromatic complexity, and faithful expression of its grape variety. This achievement celebrates not just a single bottle, but the daily commitment of the entire team—both in the vineyards and in the cellar.
"We are deeply honored to receive this award," says Alessandro De Stefani, representing the fourth generation of the family. "The Tre Bicchieri from Gambero Rosso serves as a vital validation of our work over the past few years and provides a powerful incentive to continue on this path—highlighting the unique characteristics of our land and the sustainability of our production methods."
