Sudtiroler Sekt - Spumante dell'Alto Adige Brut Nature DOC 2013 Cantina Caldaro

The Spumante Brut Nature of the Kaltern winery in Caldaro is made from Chardonnay grapes selected from the vineyards located on the slopes of the Mendola Pass, at an altitude of about 600 meters above sea level, from land exposed to the east composed mainly of pebbles limestone of dolomitic origin.

The vinification takes place with soft pressing of the whole grapes. The free-run must ferments largely in stainless steel containers and a small part in oak tonneaux. Referments in bottle with stay on the lees for at least 48 months, followed by disgorgement without dosage.

Sparkling wine with a golden yellow color and a fine and persistent bubble as the effect of the long stay in contact with the yeasts, it releases an elegant aromatic range of white flowers and mineral notes to the nose. The mouth is savory, with a vivid freshness that envelops the palate.

Ideal to uncork for a toast, it goes well with fish or shellfish-based main courses.
