Sparkling dry
A wine without added sulfites; before alcoholic fermentation has fully completed, the wine is bottled and sealed with a permanent cork. The result of fermentation finishing in the bottle is a lightly sparkling wine. Fresh and aromatic, the wine offers aromas of bitter orange peel and tropical fruits. The Mediterranean climate and cool summer nights allow the grapes to ripen optimally, lending the wine its subtlety. Slopes of rounded stones and red clay bring freshness to the wine. The harvest is hand-picked. Maceration — 4 days. The grape juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks.
Serve at 8–10 °C with fresh goat cheese, Caesar salad, scallops or sushi.
