Nicosia Sosta Tre Santi Brut Sicilia DOC Carricante 0,75 ℓ

The Classic Method Carricante Brut Quality Sparkling Wine from the Sosta Tre Santi line of Nicosia comes from vineyards located on the western side of Etna. It is produced entirely with Carricante grapes, harvested and selected only by hand at the end of September. After a soft pressing, the fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperature for 3 weeks. After maturing in the same containers, the second fermentation takes place by refermentation in the bottle, where it remains to age on the lees and fine lees for 18 months before disgorgement. It remains to refine for another 6 months in bottle before being marketed. The Carricante Brut of Nicosia is characterized by a straw yellow color with golden reflections and a fine and persistent perlage. The nose opens with characteristic aromas of bread crust and yeasts, enriched with fresh notes of hawthorn and yellow flowers. In the mouth it is fresh and pleasant, with excellent persistence. Excellent as an aperitif, it is ideal in combination with appetizers and fish dishes.
