Description
Our idea of the classic method
An elegant and vertical 100% Pinot Noir wine. The sip is vigorous and enveloping.
Vinification process
Soft pressing of the grapes with separation of the must from the skins, alcoholic fermentation at a controlled temperature of 16-17 degrees until the sugars are exhausted. The base wine obtained is stored in steel tanks at 5 ° C until the following spring.
Subsequently, the base wine is added with yeast and sugar, bottled and capped with a crown cap. The bottles are kept horizontally for over 36 months in stacks, where the wine makes a slow and regular refermentation. After about 45 months from the harvest, through remuage and disgorgement, the sediments deposited in the bottle are eliminated, which is then topped up with the expedition liquer.
Food pairings
Excellent as an aperitif, not to be excluded with a meal, for example as an accompaniment to linguina with clams, mussels and scallops au gratin. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 6 – 8 degrees.
