Description

Il Cerrus è il primo spumante metodo classico prodotto nelle nostre Tenute.Originale e di spiccata personalità, valorizza egregiamente le migliori uve bianche dei nostri vigneti, scelte per questa "prima assoluta" nella storia spumantistica di Fattoria del Cerro.

Le uve sono pressate in maniera soffice, la lunga e lenta fermentazione avviene a temperatura controllata (12° - 14° C) per garantire una buona concentrazione aromatica. Al termine della fermentazione alcolica il vino viene rimane sulle proprie fecce fini per 3 mesi fino
all'imbottigliamento momento nel quale viene aggiunto il liqueur de tirage e il vino subisce una lenta presa di spuma per minimo 24 mesi.

Si presenta alla vista di colore giallo paglierino intenso con riflessi dorati, al naso si percepiscono note floreali con sentori di crosta di pane, in bocca il gusto è pieno con un perlage fine e persistente. Ideale come aperitivo, ottimo in abbinamento ad antipasti a base di pesce, verdure e formaggi, crostacei in genere, così come paste e risotti a base di pesce e verdure.
