Production
The Gatti family manage 120 hectares of vineyards in six localities within the DOC. Matured for six years in bottle on the lees.
Tasting notes
Immediately impressive! The wine has a beautiful pale-mid golden colour and a maelstrom of tiny bubbles. The long lees ageing gives it an aristocratic, serious and very refined quality. A nose of apples and toasty notes from yeast lees contact. The palate has more apple, with lemon, brioche and toast. A well balanced and refreshing finish. Big flavours, but also very fresh with great acidity and just perfect 'mousse'.
Food match
Try this served with a traditional dish from the region such as tench, or similar freshwater fish, cooked in cinammon, nutmeg and cloves and served with polenta. Alternatively, this wine is a great match for savoury dishes such as lasagne with salami.
