Sparkling
Double Bubble
By Colle Manora, Monferrato, Piemonte, Italy
Chardonnay sparkling wine made by the long Charmat method from the "Del Papa" vineyard, on clay and marl soils. The name and the Zagato label recall the double-bubble roof of the 1957 Ferrari 250 Tour de France Zagato.
Tasting notes
