Following the hand harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and left to settle prior to a carefully controlled fermentation in stainless steel vats. Re-fermentation is via the Charmat method in stainless steel tanks (closed under pressure) at programmed temperatures and with selected yeasts for a minimum of 60 days. The dosage is 12 gms/L with a natural acidity of 7 gms/L.
Brilliant straw-yellow with green reflections, fine and persistent perlage. The nose is markedly fruity and aromatic showing notes of apple and white stone fruits. The palate shows enticing fresh apple and pear fruit, and is wonderfully creamy and full with a pleasant fruity aftertaste.
Serve well chilled as an aperitivo with a range of antipasto such as scampi crostini, salt and pepper squid, fresh asparagus frittata, polenta ‘chips’ and Prosciutto Crudo with melon or fresh figs.
