The “Cruasé” Rosé Brut Metodo Classico is a sparkling wine made from grapes harvested manually in small boxes, with multiple harvesting steps depending on the different parcels in August. The bunches, taken to the cellar, undergo a short maceration before being pressed sequentially. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of around 18-20 °C. Once the base wine has been obtained, the liquer de tirage is added for second fermentation and refermentation in the bottle on its own yeasts, with a duration of approximately 44 months for the "Cruasé". After the period of refinement on the yeasts, we proceed to disgorgement and the addition of the liquer de tirage to reach the desired level of sweetness, typically of the Brut category.

The wine has a light salmon pink color with coppery nuances and a fine and persistent perlage. The aromatic profile includes fragrances of red berries, such as raspberry, wild strawberry and blueberry, accompanied by notes of white flowers, rosemary, lemon peel, almond and toasted bread crust. In the mouth it is soft, silky and fresh, with a lively liveliness and remarkable balance, completed by a light savory note that blends with the aromas of red fruits.

Winery history
The Massolino family has been active in Serralunga d'Alba since 1896, a date established from archival records. Over time the estate has promoted historic vineyards in Serralunga and in recent years has also launched projects in the Barbaresco area, expanding its presence in the Langhe.
Production philosophy
The production approach aims to highlight the voice of the terroir and the grape rather than cellar interventions: careful vineyard management, winemaking that respects the raw material, and the goal of producing precise, expressive wines capable of conveying the distinct character of each cru, with particular attention to Nebbiolo.
Terroir and vineyards
The winery is located in Serralunga d'Alba, in the heart of the Langhe. The wines come from vineyards on hills well suited to Nebbiolo; the estate offers "classic" wines produced by blending multiple vineyards and crus that highlight differences in soil, exposure and vine age.
