Tasting notes
Straw yellow colour with fine, persistent bubbles. Intense aroma of flowers and citrus fruit accompanied by characters of yeast, brioche and dry nuts. Complex taste with refreshing acidity, freshness, hints of flint and a long fruity aromatic aftertaste.
Vinification
Selected Moschofilero grapes are harvested early. After gentle pressing of the grapes, the juice was fermented at a low temperature.
Ageing
The base wine matures on the fine lees for 6 months. Then, following the traditional method for sparkling wine production with secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine ages 18 more months on the fine lees in the bottle.
Food pairing
Served as an aperitif. It is an excellent companion of shellfish, roe, and grilled fish as well as rice or pasta with herbs. Try it with exotic recipes.
