Primae Lucis Spumante Rosè Brut Citra

Wine features

The description

Vinifi cation process:
after a soft crushing, the grapes rest at low temperature
for a short time enabling the solution of the must aromas and thus obtaining the
typical “ onionskin” rosé colour. The basic must for sparkling wine ferments in
pressure tank with selected yeasts. Fermentation lasts 60-80 days; after bottle
fermentation the sparkling wine remains on the yeasts for some other time,
to enhance its organoleptic characteristics. The stabilization of tartaric acid
occurs later, refrigerating the must at low temperature. Next step is the isobaric
bottling of the wine.
Fermentation in stainless steel tanks (autoclaves)
Colour:
brilliant, onionskin rosé colour, with a fi ne and persistent perlage
.
Bouquet:
rose, cherry and red fruit hints, lightly spicy, bready crust overtone.
Taste:
well balanced, lingering, slightly sparkling, pleasant acidity due to the
carbon dioxide and to the nice black cherry and cherry taste. The wine has a
lingering fi nish with some bitter faint nuances.
