Enthusiast Bubbles

Wine 1: Paul Buisse, Crémant de Loire 

These vineyards are in Touraine and the Loire Valley, grown in clay-limestone and flinty soils. Assemblage of Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay. The grapes are harvested by hand, collected in crates and carefully pressed to obtain the fine consistency required for the prise de mousse, the initial fermentation process that forms delicate bubbles.The bottles are laid on wooden lattes racks for 12 months to mature, resulting in a very delicate, aromatic wine containing tiny bubbles. Its intense aromas are reminiscent of brioche, with overtones of quince, lime blossom and honey that are characteristic of Chenin. An ideal apéritif wine that is also lively enough to accompany the entire meal.

Wine 2: Villa Sandi Prosecco

The must with added yeast cultures selected by Villa Sandi is then put into vessels where fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 15-16°C to enhance all the harvest fragrances. Upon reaching the required alcohol and sugar content fermentation is stopped by refrigeration. After a short settling period the sparkling wine is ready for bottling.

Whole grapes are put into the pneumatic press for soft pressing and the resulting must, after a first racking, is put into controlled temperature tanks where it remains until it is used for the production of the sparkling wine.

Excellent as an aperitif. It goes well with fish marinated with delicate aromatic herbs and herb-based first courses.
