The 2018 BRUT M.C. BIO* by ANSALDI is an elegant expression of Italian sparkling wine from Sicily, a region renowned for the quality of its organic wines. This white DOC wine originates from the Abbadessa vineyard, cultivated on medium-textured soils with a thin calcareous crust and a layer of peat that provide vigour and complexity to the grapes. The winemaking process involves whole cluster pressing with low-temperature fermentation and an eight-month ageing on the lees, characteristics that impart finesse and persistence to the final product. Vintage: 2021 Alcohol content: 12.5 Winery: Controspalliera Harvest/Vintage: Manual in 15 kg crates. Organoleptic notes: Characterised by a fine and persistent perlage. Aroma marked by a complex citrus note with pleasant hints of honey and toasted bread. Fresh and persistent taste. Soil: Medium-textured, fairly deep with a slight presence of gravel. In depth, it is characterised by the presence of a thin calcareous crust of marine origin, resting on an important layer of "peat", an ancient soil where the roots settle and find water resources and macronutrients for good vigour.
