Sparkling · 2022
Limited Edition
By Fontanafredda, Barolo, Piemonte, Italy
A meticulous blend of Pinot Nero and Chardonnay from crus at an average altitude of 500m, aged a minimum of 30 months on its lees for aromatic complexity.
Tasting notes
Straw yellow with green highlights; nose recalling honey, white peach, grapefruit and basil; savoury on the palate with a persistent, enveloping sparkle and a sweet, lingering finish
Pairs well with
Aperitif, and versatile enough to accompany a full meal
