When it comes to Prosecco, we immediately think about a ‘young sparkling wine with a light structure’. However, it is with Ladaltempo [BeyondTime] that Ruggeri, the historic winery from Valdobbiadene, embraces and harnesses the power of time to create an oenological project and sparkling wine that represents a perfect pairing of tradition and innovation.

The project
Thanks to its long, patient on-the-lees ageing for over 60 months, Ruggeri elevates Prosecco Superiore well above its reputation as a ‘young wine with a light structure’. “Ladaltempo is ‘The Next Generation Fine Wine’: on the one hand it has roots deeply anchored in the tradition and know-how of a globally renowned territory for its wine culture, on the other hand, it looks to the future through the lens of experimentation and innovation.” explains Laura Mayr, General Manager at Ruggeri.
The first edition of Ladaltempo was crafted from the 2017 harvest to reveal the reward that comes with patience. The desire to await the perfect moment, unfettered by the influences of deadlines or the world’s expectations and immutable calendar. Indeed, Ladaltempo will not be released every year, nor will it necessarily follow the chronological order of the harvests: it is truly ‘The Prosecco Beyond Time’.
Ruggeri is a historic Italian winery renowned for producing Prosecco Superiore from carefully selected grapes of Valdobbiadene with a relentless international vision projected towards the future.
In 2017, the company became part of the German group Rotkäppchen-Mumm Sektkellereien, that not only believed in Prosecco as a high-quality product but more importantly shared Ruggeri’s values and innovative approach from the start.
