Tenuta Langasco Gredo

Alta Langa DOCG Metodo Classico sparkling wine, a blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Pinot Noir, aged on the lees for about 48 months before disgorgement.

Tasting notes

A not overly intense yellow color with a fine and persistent perlage. The typical scent of Chardonnay, softened by aging, blends very well with the hint of bread crust given by the refermentation and the rest on the lees. The Pinot Noir provides structure and longevity.
