What Valdo Cuvée di Boj tastes like
Valdo's own note promises "a pronounced fruitiness of pear and golden apple", and that is what you meet first. It is a Brut, so it holds no more than 12 grams of sugar a litre. That makes it drier than an Extra Dry, whatever the names suggest.

- Light, from a UK shop's listing
Pear and golden apple lead, over a light scent of white flowers close to jasmine. Underneath sits a faint note of bread crust. The whole is delicate and inviting rather than loud.
Light and dry, as a Brut should be, with fine, steady bubbles. The pear turns juicy, with a twist of candied lemon and grapefruit, and fresh acidity keeps it lively. It spends about five months in a sealed tank, the slow version of the usual Prosecco method, then rests in bottle. In the mouth it feels airy rather than sharp.
Long and dry. The pear and golden apple stay with you after the bubbles fade, the "excellent persistence of aroma and flavour" that Valdo's own note promises.
Valdo's Brut from one named valley in Valdobbiadene: dry and light, and the one to pick if you find Extra Dry too sweet. Drink it young; we would finish a bottle bought now by the end of 2027. Falstaff gave it 93 points in October 2025.
Valdo Cuvée di Boj at about £15 a bottle
Three UK shops stock it in the standard 75cl bottle. At about £15 it sits towards the lower end of what a Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore costs in the UK, for a wine Falstaff scored 93.
Where Valdo Cuvée di Boj fits
Its strongest cards are Best intro to this style and Best with food. It is a dry, light Brut at 11.5% that suits fish, shellfish and fried snacks.
Easy to like: light, dry without being harsh, 11.5% alcohol, with pear and apple up front. A clear first taste of what Glera from the Valdobbiadene hills is like.
Dry, light and finely sparkling, it cuts through batter and oil and stays gentle with fish and shellfish, the food Valdo itself suggests.
About £15 a bottle, towards the lower end of what UK shops charge for Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore, for a wine Falstaff scored 93 in 2025.
Light at 11.5% and easy to drink, so it suits a midweek fish supper. At about £15 it is more of a treat than a nightly bottle.
A DOCG Prosecco Superiore from the Valdobbiadene hills with fine, lasting bubbles: smart enough for a toast or a party, though not a grand-occasion wine.
There is no year on the label and nothing to gain from keeping it. We would drink a bottle bought now by the end of 2027.

Perfect Pairings
Dishes that go with this wine
Fish, fried food and the Venice lagoon with Cuvée di Boj
Valdo matches it with fish-based dishes and calls it "a wine that perfectly accompanies the entire meal". The bubbles and fresh acidity cut through batter and oil, and the light body never swamps delicate fish.
Fried snacks from the Italian table
Fine bubbles and fresh acidity scrub the oil off your tongue, so the next fried mouthful tastes as light as the first. Cuvée di Boj is a dry Prosecco Superiore Brut at 11.5%, so it refreshes rather than weighs you down.
Try with: Gnocco fritto · Arancini · Pizza Fritta · More pairings →
Creamed salt cod and other Venetian classics
This is the food of the Veneto, the wine's home. The Brut's acidity and bubbles cut the salty, olive-oil richness of creamed salt cod. Glera's gentle pear fruit sits easily beside the sweet little lagoon shrimp on white polenta.
Try with: Baccala Mantecato · Polenta e schie · Risi e bisi · More pairings →
Oysters, mussels and other shellfish
A dry Brut with fresh acidity works like a squeeze of lemon on shellfish. Cuvée di Boj's clean pear and citrus notes stay out of the way of the sea flavours, and the bubbles keep each mouthful fresh.
Try with: Oysters · Potted Shrimp · Mussels · Impepata di cozze
Delicate white fish
Light in body at 11.5%, this Valdobbiadene Brut never swamps a delicate piece of fish. Fish is the match Valdo itself suggests, and the wine can stay on the table from the first course to the last.
Try with: Steamed sea bass · Sashimi · Scottish Smoked Salmon
Pear, blue cheese and creamy risotto
The pear in the wine meets the pear in a Gorgonzola risotto, while the bubbles lift the creamy rice and salty cheese. A Brut Prosecco Superiore like this one has the acidity to stay fresh against butter and Parmesan.
Try with: Gorgonzola, pear, and walnut risotto · Pumpkin risotto · Risotto alla Milanese · More pairings →
Hot chilli dishes
Chilli heat flattens Cuvée di Boj's delicate pear and flower scents and makes the bubbles feel prickly. A Brut has little sugar to soften the burn. For spicy food, pick a sweeter Prosecco Superiore Dry instead.

Common Questions
Yes. It is a Brut, the driest of the three classic Prosecco Superiore styles. A Brut holds up to 12 grams of sugar a litre, an Extra Dry 12 to 17 and a Dry 18 to 32.
It comes from the Conegliano Valdobbiadene DOCG, the hillsides of 15 towns between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene. The rules there cap the crop at 13.5 tonnes of grapes a hectare, against 18 for plain Prosecco DOC. Cuvée di Boj comes from Valdobbiadene itself.
From the Valle dei Buoi, the valley of the oxen, in San Pietro di Barbozza, a hamlet of Valdobbiadene. The Glera for this wine grows there, on slopes between 200 and 400 metres up, and the wine takes its name from the valley.
Fish, which is Valdo's own advice, and it can stay on the table for the whole meal. It is very good with creamed salt cod, shrimp on polenta, oysters and fried snacks such as gnocco fritto. Avoid hot chilli, which flattens its delicate fruit.
About £15 for a single bottle. Three UK shops sell it in the standard 75cl size, and two of them charge a little less a bottle when you buy several.
Serve it at 6 to 7°C, as Valdo advises. Chill it slowly in the fridge, without sudden changes of temperature, and pour it into a long-stemmed glass.
