La Scolca Brut Millesimato d'Antan

A Brut produced only in the best years, resting on the lees in bottle for about ten years or more.

Tasting notes

Bright light gold, dense soft abundant foam, fine continuous bubbles. Intense, persistent nose of exotic fruit fading to honey and spice. Dry, full, firm and fresh palate, velvety, pleasantly acidic, with almond, brioche, bread and yeast.

Pairs well with

Aperitif and important lunches; also after lunch and for contemplation.
