Spumante Extra Brut Rosé Metodo Classico 2019

Frecciarossa’s Rosé Frecciarossa is an excellent traditional method sparkling wine produced in Oltrepò Pavese with only Pinot Noir. It is a rosé obtained by maceration, not by blending, indeed in this case it is not even a real maceration during fermentation but only a cold maceration before pressing the grapes. This guarantees finesse and freshness to the sip, but gives a characteristic fruity aroma and flavor to the wine. It is a complex and particularly elegant traditional method, suitable of being proposed as an aperitif or paired with meals. The grapes come from vineyards located in the first hills of Casteggio in the province of Pavia where the tradition of cultivating Pinot Noir for sparkling wine has over a century of history.

The grapes are harvested by hand in the morning. The only moment of color extraction from the skins takes place in the press with the natural weight of the grapes that crush the berries. After pressing, the pale pink free-run must is clarified and then fermented in steel vats at a controlled temperature. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle according to the traditional method and the aging on the lees lasts for 14 months. It is dosed with 3.5 g / l of sugars.
