Alta Langa DOCG Brut 2020 Duchessa Lia

What kind of wine is it

Alta Langa Brut by Duchessa Lia is born in Piedmont as a classic method sparkling wine made from a blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The profile reveals a fresh and refined style, with harmonious structure and clear finesse. The sparkling is obtained using the Classic Method, with prolonged aging on the lees that gives it complexity and remarkable persistence.

Where does it come from

The grapes come from the hills of Alta Langa, an area with a strong tradition linked to the Classic Method.

How it is produced

After harvesting and gentle pressing, the wine follows the Classic Method with extended aging on the lees, a step that develops creaminess and aromatic complexity. Disgorgement completes the process.

Tasting notes

The color is bright straw yellow with golden reflections and a fine, persistent perlage. The nose reveals notes of yeast and brioche, with nuances of vanilla and moss. On the palate, it shows a taut entrance, citrus hints, a slender body and savory structure. The finish is harmonious and persistent.

Food pairings

This Classic Method pairs well with seafood appetizers, fish, shellfish and oysters. In regional cuisine, it accompanies agnolotti del plin with butter and sage and enhances the delicacy of the filling. Among national dishes, it finds harmony with aged cheeses and grilled vegetables, which balance perfectly with its freshness.

When to serve

It is best served chilled in flutes or tulip glasses to enhance the bubbles. Ideal as an aperitif during summer evenings, it accompanies an entire meal on formal occasions. It is recommended to enjoy it within the first years after disgorgement, when it best expresses freshness and fragrance.
