Cesarini Sforza Brut NV 750ml

The fruit for this wine is selected from the Collina della Trentodoc region of Trentino in northeastern Italy. The grapes are hand-picked and then pressed gently in whole bunches. Fermented initially in stainless steel tanks and then followed by a secondary fermentation in bottle as per Metodo Classico requirements. The wine rests on the lees for at least 24 - 30 months before disgorgement. Grape varieties: 85% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Noir Altitude: 450m - 700m ASL Vineyard age: 20-25 years old Grape yield: 10 tons per hectare Exposure: South/Southeast Soil: Deep, stony soil structure with some clay and loose porphyric rock and sand on the surface. Dosage at disgorgement: 5 g/l Bottle fermentation on the lees: From 24 - 30 months Alcohol: 12.5% Tasting notes: Pale pink in color with a bouquet of red fruit and a hint of spice on the nose. On the palate, the combination of the Chardonnay's freshness and vitality matched with the complexity of the Pinot Noir creates a sense of approachability and elegance. The blend is balanced and complete.
