The Wine
The producer's first signature wine, the first Prosecco with the vintage on the label (1983), sealed with a brace and not a muselet. A surprising, authorial and intimate sparkling wine that has revolutionized the history of Prosecco.
Vinification
Charmat method: pressing, destemming, cooling of must and fermentation at a controlled temperature in steel tanks. Second fermentation in autoclave.
Tasting notes
Bright straw yellow color, intense bouquet of exotic fruit and ripe apple, notes of wisteria, peach and white flowers. Typically sweet and fruity on the palate, it is balanced by a mild acidity that gives a pleasantly fresh finish.
Pairing recommendations from the producer
A surprising match to savory bites, cold cuts and spicy foods. A traditional pairing to dry pastries, fruit tarts, panettone, macarons and semifreddo.
