Vinification typology: Early harvesting of the grapes for the creation of the sparkling base which rests on the lees for about 8 months. In spring, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle and the product remains on the lees for about 12 months before disgorgement.
The product is dosed with the addition of the same liquid, therefore without the use of any liqueur. Our classic method is conceived favoring freshness and elegance. For this reason our chardonnay is disgorged quite early but with the intention of offering a high-level product.
It does not disdain prolonged aging in the bottle.
Organoleptic test
From the delicacy and refinement of the tropical fruity notes of Chardonnay,
it presents itself on the palate as fresh and structured thanks to the idea of a counter-current processing by Aldo Cifola: reducing the aging period on the lees in favor of a young, impactful, fresh and crunchy wine.
The combination with dishes during meals is very suitable, it is perfect for summer aperitifs based on shellfish.
