Vettori

Vettori

A small family estate in San Pietro di Feletto that publishes the sugar level of every wine, which is more than most small growers will tell you.

Borgo America sounds a long way from the Veneto. It is an address in San Pietro di Feletto, in the hills near Conegliano, and the Vettori family has farmed land here for generations. Arturo Vettori runs the estate today, at Borgo America 26. In 1990 the family decided to start again: the producer says the company was "reborn" that year, when the vineyards were completely restructured and replanted more densely, with integrated pest management, which means treating the vines only when they need it rather than by the calendar.

At a glance

The story

First, the name. Search for Vettori Prosecco and you will mostly find Il Borgo dei Vettor (Vettoretti Erminio), a different Valdobbiadene winery. This page is about Arturo Vettori in San Pietro di Feletto.

What we like most about the Vettoris is a small act of honesty. Every one of their wines comes with its sugar level published. Most small growers just print the style and leave you to guess, which is a problem in Prosecco, because the style words run backwards. Brut is dry. Extra Dry is sweeter than Brut. Dry is sweeter still. A number cuts through all of that, and the Vettoris give you one for every bottle.

Then there is the label. Prosecco's top hill wines carry the DOCG, the strictest tier, from the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. The plain DOC covers a far bigger zone across the Veneto and Friuli. The Vettori estate sits on the Conegliano side of those hills, yet its labels say Valdobbiadene DOCG. The denomination covers both towns, so it is a choice of name, not a change of place.

The range is short: three sparkling wines, all 100% Glera, and one still white. That white is Manzoni Bianco, a grape that Gregoletto also grows, and Gregoletto has vineyards in San Pietro di Feletto too. There is no online shop. This is a winery you visit, or you write to.

What to drink

Valdobbiadene DOCG Extra Brut. 1.5 to 2 g/l, close to no added sugar at all. The producer describes pear, citrus and flowers, with a texture that is creamy and taut at once. For anyone who finds most Prosecco too sweet, this is the bottle. We found no price.

Valdobbiadene DOCG Brut. 7 to 8 g/l, comfortably dry. The producer describes apple, wisteria and acacia, and suggests it with fish. It also comes in magnum, which is the right size for a table of six. We found no price.

Valdobbiadene DOCG Extra Dry. 14 g/l, the softer style. The producer sees it as an aperitif and, more surprisingly, as a match for spicy Asian food, which is a good idea: a little sweetness is kind to chilli. We found no price.

Manzoni Bianco (still). 0 g/l. The producer describes white flowers, citrus and tropical fruit. We found no price.

Prices: euro prices are what the winery or an Italian retailer charges, with a rough dollar figure at about $1.14 to the euro (October 2026). In the US, expect more on the shelf once shipping, the 15% tariff on EU wine, importer and distributor margins and taxes are added.

Where it fits

Vettori is for the reader who wants to know exactly what is in the glass. If you like the precision of a published sugar figure and a short, focused range, start here, then drive over to Gregoletto for the cloudy, bottle-fermented side of the same hills. Between the Extra Brut and the Extra Dry, one family covers the two ends of the Prosecco argument with numbers to prove it.
