Grapes come exclusively from the best areas on the Valdobbiadene and Vidor’s hills. The grape harvest period starts from the end of September until mid October. The wine making phases are done in white, that means without skins and at a controlled temperature of 19 °C.
It is a spumante brut, the result of a long and meticulous refermentation in autoclave at a controlled temperature of 16 – 17 °C with an extended period on the lees for a 1 month circa.
Pressure in bottle is of 5,5 atm. Alcohol strength of 11,5 % vol. with a sugar content of 10 gr/liter and a total acidity of 6,50 gr/liter. Light green color with a small and persistent bead (or “perlage”). Intense aroma, with scents of ripe fruits on a floral background.
It is dry, fresh and light, soft and well balanced with a good aromatic persistence, with a pleasant slightly bitter toasted almond ending. The ideal tasting temperature is of 7 – 8 °C, popping the bottle at the moment before consumption.
Classic wine for aperitif, ideal with seafood appetizers. To better appreciate its fragrance and freshness it is advised to consume it within the year.
