Rezzadore 'Maresina' Prosecco NV

Regular price

Farmed organically and hand-picked, which is very unusual for Prosecco production. A combination of noncontiguous blocks with varied exposition, soil and climate produce grapes with an individual character that results in increased complexity to the wine. Lower yields, about half of the local norm, results in smaller, more concentrated berries. Gentle pressing, then chilled down to settle out the solids. Racked into tank for the primary fermentation at controlled temperatures of about 12–15 degrees Celsius. Tank method for secondary fermentation. Fined, filtered, bottled. The name Maresina is lovely and feminine and is derived from a local herb that grows wild in the area. It has quite deep, earthy aromas and is used in local dishes.
