Albis

Spumante Extra Dry

It appears luminous and shimmering, with a slender bead and a soft but generous mousse. The full-volumed bouquet offers crisp notes of Golden Delicious apple, peach, and wisteria blossom, and exhibits an impressive balance between luscious aromatics and a clean-edged crispness. In the mouth, it is smooth and fruit-rich, with good breadth and structure. Overall, it shows elegance and fine proportions.

VIneyard The Glera, Bianchetta, Verdiso and other grapes are grown in the Venetian hills, in south-southwest facing vineyards at elevations of 120-140 metres. Most are trained to the Sylvoz system at densities averaging 4,000 vines per hectare. The clusters are hand-picked in mid-September, and yields average 90 hl/ha. The weather is temperate, with cold winters, warm summers, and consistent breezes. Day-night temperature differentials are significant, particularly in the summer.

VINIFICAtion The clusters are de-stemmed and gently pressed in a custom bladder-press. After the must is gravity-settled, it ferments at 18-20°C. Secondary fermentation is carried out, over ca. two months, in accord with the Italian Method, in large, 100hl pressure fermenters.

serving glass Best served at 6-8°C in fairly generous-sized glasses.

PAIRING AND CELLARING Albis makes a wonderful aperitif: thanks to its structure and full body, it partners beautifully with traditional Italian first courses such as antipasti and vegetarian and fish preparations. It will be at its  best in the year following harvest, but if stored well it will gain in complexity on both nose and palate two years after harvest.
