Description

The Brut "36" by Casa Caterina is a sparkling wine that stands out for its long aging on the yeasts. In the vineyard, the objective is to obtain healthy fruit, as intact as possible, with always complete ripening. The base wines ferment spontaneously in steel and are subsequently assembled for refermentation in the bottle, following the classic method. It is almost undosed and contains no added sulphites.

It has a bright and quite intense straw yellow color. On the nose there are notes of lime, jasmine, citrus and tropical fruit, always maintaining elegance without falling into excess. The sip is full and versatile. An ideal wine to pair with practically any fish-based starter and first course.
