Wine 1: Alessandro Berselli Prosecco Brut Rose
Vinification: the two grape varieties undergo a separate vinification process in order to obtain the best taste profile out of each. Glera undergoes a traditional white wine vinification at low controlled temperature; Pinot Nero Rosé undergoes a pre-fermentative cryomaceration in order to enhance its aromas. At the end of the fermentation, the two wines are blended and they’re placed in autoclave for the second fermentation, which lasts for about 60 days.
Tasting Notes: refreshing and elegant, the typical note of breadcrumbs perfectly blends with notes of raspberry, blueberry, and wild strawberry. overall it’s very fruity with notes of raspberry and strawberry. It’s a very refreshing and extremely persistent wine.
Food Suggestions: excellent as an aperitif; it pairs very well with any seafood-based dish and light pasta dishes.

Tasting Notes: At last, the Štajerska Sauvignon Pet Nat we’ve all been waiting for! Showcasing what Sauvignon Blanc from this region can offer in a fun and fizzy form —- fully harnessing the tremendous aromatics captured by the wind-rich hilly vineyards, zesty minerality from the marl soils, and power from the steep sloped exposure. Exploding aromatically with green and tropical fruits – lime and grapefruit zest lead into an electric palate of fresh kiwi, lemon preserves and white grapefruit. This fizz drinks dangerously easy and has enough depth and vivacity to please your senses any time of year.
