Bianco frizzante "Sorlis" Trezero

The white sparkling wine 'Sorlis' from the Trezero winery is made exclusively with PIWI white grapes of the Soreli variety. These innovative varieties are the result of crossing traditional varieties with varieties resistant to fungal diseases, such as the American variety, with the aim of obtaining plants capable of resisting diseases caused by fungi such as powdery mildew and downy mildew, the cross of every wine-grower. Soreli is an Italian variety, developed by the University of Udine from an indigenous variety very famous in Italy, the Friulano. 
"Sorlis is a lively sparkling wine, pleasant and easy to drink, its bubbles are obtained by a second fermentation in the bottle. Its fresh, citrus aromas stand out, making it ideal for an aperitif with friends, perhaps before a dinner party. 
The vineyards are located near the winery, in the municipality of Valvasone Arzene, in the western part of Friuli Venezia Giulia. The soils in this area are loamy-clayey, with an abundant presence of skeleton. It goes without saying that the company is committed to environmental sustainability and organic farming, using only Piwi varieties. 
After manual harvesting, the grapes are lightly pressed and the must obtained is fermented at a low temperature. The resulting wine is then aged on the lees for 3-4 months, with constant batonnage. The second fermentation in the bottle takes place with the natural residual sugar. Sorlis is marketed with the lees at the bottom, without being disgorged. 
In the glass, Sorlis has an elegant straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections.  Fresh citrus notes stand out on the nose, accompanied by delicate aromas of white flowers and hints of medicinal herbs such as mint and sage. On the finish, a hint of bread crust adds further aromatic complexity. The perlage is fine and persistent. 
The palate is mineral, savoury, rich and well balanced. Its freshness and structure make it the ideal companion for convivial moments. Perfect with fish or vegetarian aperitifs, it goes well with creamed cod crostino and also with sushi, enhancing the flavours with its brilliance.
