HARVEST TIME:

From the mid to the end of august. It’s critical to identify, according to appropriate ripening indices, the proper day to start harvesting grapes in order to get a balanced product, with the appropriate rate of acidity, strength and body.

HARVEST:

Manual, in pierced crates, with grapes selected in the vineyard and immediately put into the pneumatic press.

SPARKLING WINEMAKING PROCESSES:

The grapes collected in the crates are, after few hours, gently pressed according to careful manual programs in order to get a fresh juice that, within some hours, settles and becomes clear, separating from solid parts. The savvy usage of biotechnologies and cold allows a slow alcoholic fermentation with a controlled temperature of 13°C in stainless steel tanks. In spring, the resulting wine is put into the bottles where the prise de mousse takes place. Then bottles are staked in appropriate underground galleries where temperature is constantly around 12°C. After at least 42 months of aging in these underground galleries, our ALTA LANGA wine is ready for remuage and degorgement operations.

PRODUCED BOTTLES:

CHARACTERISTICS:

In the glass, it shows a luminous straw yellow color, with an extremely fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, deep aromas of bread crust, brioche, yeast, and citrus emerge, accompanied by subtle mineral nuances. The palate is taut, dry, and profound, supported by pronounced salinity and a long, persistent finish.

FOOD PAIRINGS:

Ideal as an aperitif, it pairs with great precision with raw seafood, oysters, structured fish dishes, and preparations of strong gastronomic intensity.
