Enrico Serafino - Parcellaire - Extra Brut Millesimato 2019 - Alta Langa Docg - Metodo Classico - 75cl

                

1 BOTTLE OF 75cl.

Enrico Serafino has applied parcel vinification since the birth of the Alta Langa docg. Parcellaire is obtained from the selection of some parcels that best represent the typically "scratchy" character of the denomination. The dosage, deliberately reduced in sugars, combined with the absence of distillates, eliminates any interference between the wine and its territory of origin.

Fermentation process: The bunches of grapes are selected by hand on a vibrating table and pressed in an inert environment (nitrogen) with a free-run must yield of 55%. The entire process takes place without the use of augers in order to treat the grapes in the most delicate way possible.

The must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature and stored for 6 months on the lees with bâtonnage.

classic method: The second fermentation is carried out according to the traditional method of fermentation in the bottle, with prolonged aging on the yeasts until the wine is completely ripe. The liqueur d'expédition added after disgorgement is prepared following our secret recipe which includes reserve wines and sugar (4.5 g/L). We pride ourselves on avoiding any distillates in our final dosage.
