Description
This organically grown, estate-bottled sparkling wine is made primarily of Glera, with small amounts of the traditional varieties Perera, Verdiso and Bianchetta. Half of the grape juice is made into still wine right at harvest, the other half is kept at very low temperature until needed. The second fermentation (for bubbles) takes place in special tanks that can stand the pressure, and consist of about half still wine and half grape juice (not sugar, as is normal.) After a long, slow fermentation, the must is kept in contact with the fine lees for about 4 months, then filtered and bottled at about 7 grams of residual sweetness per liter. A number of batches are produced during the year to ensure freshness, and we import the wine frequently for the same reason.
This Prosecco dazzles with lively fruity aromas of apple, citrus, and peach, followed by a clean and crisp citrus bite. It's a young, clean, and oh-so-drinkable sparkling wine.
