The Story
This ultra-precise, razor-sharp, and deeply sophisticated Metodo Classico sparkling wine opens with an intense, crystalline bouquet of green apples, lemon zest, and crunchy white peaches, beautifully underscored by complex autolytic notes of baked bread crust, oyster shell, chalk, and toasted hazelnuts. On the light-to-medium-bodied palate, it showcases an uncompromising, bone-dry architecture. A focused core of citrus and stone fruits is driven by a piercing, electric regional acidity and a vibrating, salty volcanic-like mineral tension, while an extraordinarily fine and persistent perlage carries into a long, pristine, and laser-focused finish.
Food Pairing: The ultimate wine for pure seafood gastronomy; pairs spectacularly with raw oysters, sea urchin, premium sashimi, caviar, or rich, buttery seafood risottos that benefit from a clean, palate-cleansing contrast.
