MONTI LESSINI

METODO  CLASSICO

Straw yellow wine with golden highlights. Brilliant, with a fine, lively, and persistent perlage. The nose reveals a mineral and citrus character, with aromas of grapefruit, unripe pineapple, white peach, and orange blossom. Delicate notes of sea salt and a spicy hint of ginger follow. On the palate, the bubbles are firm yet caressing: the fresh attack offers an immediate sensation of cleanliness, while the finish is dominated by a savory character that amplifies the citrus and mineral notes. A Metodo Classico of great finesse, reflecting the complexity of the volcanic-basaltic soils and the meticulous care in the vineyard and cellar. The harvest, manual and selective, takes place in late September in the Durella vineyards located between 200 and 500 meters above sea level, on volcanic-basaltic soils managed using integrated pest management. The vines, trained half using the Guyot system and half using old Veronese pergolas, offer low yields and highly concentrated grapes. After destemming and gentle pressing, the must ferments at 15°C and ages on the fine lees with regular bâtonnage. This is followed by secondary fermentation in the bottle and a long maturation on the lees for at least 18 months, before manual riddling and disgorgement.
