In this sparkling wine of Cantina Letrari, you can feel all the terroir of the area of origin: it is the Vallegarina, Trentino Alto Adige, an area particularly dedicated to the production of bubbles of excellent quality. Here in 1976 was founded the winery Letrari that today with its 23 hectares of vineyards produces important wines, thanks to the exposure to the south of the hills and the influence of Ora del Garda, which blows over the Adige creating a mild climate. This Spumante Trento DOC is produced with the Classic Method, using exclusively Chardonnay grapes grown on hills facing south but well ventilated, which give the wines an enviable freshness and sapidity. The harvest is manual and the subsequent aging on the lees requires a stay of 24 months.
Characteristics of Trento DOC Cuvèè Blanche sparkling wine
Cuvée Blanche is an immediate wine, ready to drink that surprises for its lively and elegant. Thanks to the use of high-hill Chardonnay grapes, a golden color is obtained with floral, citrus and green apple hints. In the mouth it is vertical, despite being well balanced between creaminess and acidity.
Recommended pairings with this Spumante
