Questo vino
Vineyard and terroir
The Malbec comes from Vigna del Bruciato in Bolgheri. The vines are trained to spurred cordon, with production limited to 2,000 g per plant. Harvest takes place by hand at the beginning of September.
Grapes
100% Malbec.
Vinification
The hand-picked grapes are pressed directly. The must ferments at low temperature and is then bottled with a small quantity of residual sugar, which provides the substrate for a natural second fermentation in bottle. The wine is not disgorged.
Ageing
At least four months in bottle.
Technical data
Frizzante Ancestrale Rosato IGT Toscana. Alcohol: 10.5%.
Tasting profile
Powder-pink in colour, with a distinctly fruity nose of strawberry and white peach. The palate is fresh, delicate, lively and immediately approachable.
Serving and pairing
