Casa E. di Mirafiore Piemonte Spumante

Classic method sparkling wine that refines in the estate's cellars for no less than 15 years before release.

Tasting notes

Golden blond with green reflections, fine and very persistent perlage. Scents of bread yeast, white-pulp fruit and toasted dried fruit, with great structure and harmony from the long ageing.

Pairs well with

As an aperitif or, thanks to its character, alongside a full meal.
