Forty-three certified areas are entitled to use the quality statement Rive in<br />
the Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco region. This entitlement comes with<br />
specific restrictions, such as harvesting by hand and a cap on yields. We take<br />
a closer look at what the designation, which refers to the steep vineyard sites,<br />
implies for Prosecco wines.<br />
