Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where the hills roll and the vineyards tell stories a thousand years old. Today, I'm taking you to discover an unexpected facet of this region: a brut spumante, a delicate and refined sparkle that defies clichés.
This Spumante Brut, named Cuvée Voyage, comes to us from the Frescobaldi estate, a name that resonates with Tuscan wine history. We are in Pomino, an appellation nestled in the Mugello, near Diacceto, where the altitude gives the grapes a particular freshness. This wine is the result of a blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco, grape varieties selected for their ability to express the balance and liveliness of this unique terroir.
At first glance, you will be charmed by its luminous color. On the nose, this spumante invites you on a sensory journey: fresh citrus notes mingle with wafts of white flowers, all subtly enhanced by light hints of bread crust, witnesses of its aging on lees. On the palate, the bubble is fine and persistent, caressing the palate with remarkable harmony. You will find nuances of green apple and a gourmet touch of sweet almond, offering a balanced flavor profile full of liveliness. This spumante is made using the Charmat method and benefits from 24 months of aging on lees, which gives it its complexity and finesse.
This Spumante Brut Cuvée Voyage is a true chameleon at the table. I highly recommend it to accompany your aperitivi, those moments of Italian-style conviviality. It will also be the ideal companion for your delicate antipasti, or to elevate fish dishes. Its freshness and liveliness make it a perfect choice for celebrating small and big moments, or simply to treat yourself to a sparkling and elegant break. Let yourself be carried away by this Tuscan sparkle, an invitation to a journey of the senses.
