Casaleggio Spumante

BRUT

 

Made from 100% Pinot Nero grapes, hand harvested near the end of August/ first week of September, and immediately very slightly pressed in order to obtain the color of the white pulp only and still maintain the inherent flavors of the Pinot Nero grape. The wine is made in the Charmat Method, vinified in stainless steel vats, under a controlled temperature, and after a second fermentation which creates its effervescence and sparkle, rests on its lees for several months before being filtered and bottled. This is an elegant sparkling wine with subtle aromas that hint of almonds, fresh milled wheat and flint.  Its fresh, effervescent taste makes it as an enjoyable aperitif, or as a partner to antipasti, light meats and desserts. A great choice to toast special occasions. Serve chilled.
