This Metodo Classico sparkling wine is produced with grapes grown in an estate vineyard identified as parcel n. 137 on the land registry of the municipality of Santa Maria della Versa. The grapes are harvested by hand at the end of August. The grapes are softly pressed into a membrane pneumatic press. The resulting free-run must is then clarified. The alcoholic fermentation is started using selected yeasts and is carried out at a controlled temperature. Once the fermentation is completed, the base-wine is racked and is then ready for the secondary fermentation. The secondary fermentation takes place in the bottle and the wine ages on the lees for a minimum of 36 months at a controlled temperature.
TASTING NOTES:
This wine displays a balance of minerality and toasted bread and yeast flavors. Other notes of pear and almond flowers can be found, and the wine has a long finish.
