de Alessandrini - Sassaia - Brut - Metodo Classico - Cortese

Wine: Spumante Metodo Classico (Cortese)

Vintage: 2023

Fermentation: This Cortese Spumante Brut is made from Cortese grapes, which are harvested early to balance the acidity and natural sugar for a fresh, sparkling Brut. The wine undergoes bottle fermentation and ages for 12 months on the fine lees.

Aging: Aged for twelve months on the lees prior to tirage.

Flavors: Sweet Meyer lemon and pear.

Vintage Notes: Excellent day-night temperature fluctuations resulted in perfect phenolic ripeness with lively acidity. Heavy rainfall in late August balanced the wine’s naturally high acidity.
