Description

Sparkling version of one of the rarest and most precious vines in Sardinia, this Torbato Brut by Sella & Mosca was born in Alghero, from soils rich in limestone, generous and strong, well exposed to the sun and embraced by the wind.

The selection of the grapes is careful and aimed at giving the must the best characteristics for sparkling wine. After a first fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature, there is a refermentation in autoclave according to the Charmat method for 20 days, followed by aging on its lees for 3 months.

Sparkling wine with a bright straw yellow color and very fine perlage, it explodes on the nose in all its aromas, which now recall the vivacity of acacia flowers and pink grapefruit, now a more aristocratic dimension of yeast and bread crust. The palate moves on a fresh and balsamic body, along an iodized trail that drags the sip into an interminable finish.

Ideal to brighten up an aperitif, it is the perfect complement to fried seafood.
