Col del Balt Sanzovo | Codolà | Pet Nat Style Prosecco

Before this 'modern era' of Proseccos made with the Charmat method, Prosecco was made with the ancestral method, like this wine: a second fermentation takes place in the bottle and it is not disgorged, so the wine is on its lees. In France this is known as the Pet Nat method. This results in a white sparkling wine whose aromas and flavors continue to evolve while they are in the bottle. This white sparkling wine has a straw yellow color with lots of fine bubbles and green herb and pear aromas with a hint of lemon zest. It has 0 residual sugar and it tastes dry and clean, with a slightly bitter, lemon rind tasting, finish.

Grape: Glera (Prosecco)
