Description

1742 is the year in which the cellar was built and is still used today for ageing, the historic cellar bought by Bino when he became passionate about the world of wine. The grapes come from the Petrella and Villa Pace vineyards, in the lower parts of the estate, between 200 and 250 metres above sea level, facing south. They are cultivated using the spurred cordon system. The choice of harvesting in the first 10 days of August is strategic, in order to guarantee the right acidity and alcohol content for the Metodo Classico. Soft pressing is carried out. The first fermentation takes place at a low temperature, between 14 and 16°C, with selected yeasts, in steel tanks for about 15 days in order to preserve the freshness and aromatic qualities of the grapes. After at least three months of ageing in stainless steel tanks, the wine is racked and bottled with the addition of yeast for a second fermentation in the bottle and placed in the underground cellar tunnel on wooden vats to age on the lees. This Metodo Classico Pas Dosé, a blend of Chardonnay and Trebbiano Spoletino, is patiently aged on the lees for a minimum of 30 months before disgorging, guaranteeing complexity and finesse. After disgorgement, the wine continues to rest in the bottle for at least 2 months. The result is a straw yellow wine with a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it has the scents of ripe yellow fruit, citrus, acacia flowers and a delicate crust of bread. On the palate, the wine is fresh and savoury, enhancing the pleasure of each sip and combining beautifully with fish dishes, reaching the pinnacle of gastronomic versatility.
