## Summary

Natural ancestral-method sparkler from Arneis and Nebbiolo, bottled by hand with no added sulphites. Part of the family's Radici e Filari line.

## Tasting notes

Delicate mousse with intense primary and secondary aromas and a bread-crust scent from the yeast deposit. Not disgorged: it can be drunk cloudy or clear, depending on how slowly it is poured.
