Type

White quality sparkling wine, BRUT Metodo Classico

Grape varieties

Single-variety vinification of the free-run must obtained from the soft pressing of selected, hand-harvested grapes, sourced from the soils near the Secchia river.

Harvest period

Last week of September

Vinification method

The must undergoes clarification followed by alcoholic fermentation and subsequent maturation at a controlled temperature in steel vats. After nine months, it is supplemented with selected yeasts for the second fermentation, before being bottled.
The bottles complete their refermentation lying horizontally at a constant temperature of 12°C.
The period of maturation on the yeasts is at least 72 months, followed by dégorgement (disgorging) and the subsequent addition of the liqueur d’expédition.

Description

The colour reveals itself as golden and brilliant. The nose is laden with floral and fruity notes such as chamomile, violet, white currant and lime.
The palate is supported by a beautiful acidic backbone, well integrated and enriched by notes of red fruits (raspberry, redcurrant), lemon peel and dog rose. The finish makes way for a delicate savouriness.

Packaging

The clear glass bottle is wrapped in a red film whose function is to protect the wine from light and UV rays, preserving its quality. It is recommended to remove the protective film only at the moment of consumption.

Alcohol content: 12.5% vol.
Serve at 8°C.
