AREA
Northeast Italy
GRAPES
100% Glera

11% vol.
VINIFICATION AND AGEING
The must is obtained by very soft pressing of solely Glera grapes, then 50% undergoes an initial fermentation at a controlled temperature of 18? C. (64? F.) while the remaining 50% is stored at 0? C. (32? F.) as unfermented must. Lately they are assembled and transferred into pressurized stainless steel tanks where the wine is made sparkling using the traditional Charmat method.
COLOUR
Bright pale straw-yellow; a fine, clear mousse with a very delicate perlage.
BOUQUET
Attractively intense; very fruity and aromatic, with hints of wisteria flowers and Rennet apples.
FLAVOUR
Very well-balanced and appealing, with the extremely delicate almond note that is typical of Glera grapes.
SERVING TEMPERATURE
Serve at 5? – 7? C. (41? – 45? F.).
FOOD MATCHES
An excellent aperitif, it can also be served throughout the meal – including dessert – as long as the dishes are not too strongly flavored.
