Descrizione

Fresh and lively, this Brut sparkling wine shows fine perlage and a pale straw hue that brightens the glass. On the nose, notes of green apple and citrus emerge, softened by a light floral accent and a hint of freshly baked bread; the palate is smooth and flowing, supported by a crisp acidity and a salinity that lengthens the finish. The body remains slim yet assertive, offering a pleasant balance between freshness and structure without weighing it down.

Serve chilled, around 6-8 °C, it enhances the aperitif but is also elegantly suited to light seafood dishes, shellfish and not-too-heavy fried foods; it also pairs well with fresh cheeses and vegetable-based preparations. Enjoy it by the glass during an informal aperitif or as a companion to light conversation, maintaining freshness and bubbles until the last sip. Best served in tulip-shaped glasses that concentrate the aromas and keep the bubbles lively: a versatile choice for small toasts.

Winery history

The winery has been rooted in the Orvieto area since the late 19th century; official sources record the founding of Casa Vinicola Luigi Bigi in 1880. Originally based in the former Franciscan monastery "La Trinità," production was moved to more modern facilities in Ponte Giulio during the 20th century. Over time the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini and consolidated production of Orvieto’s characteristic white wines alongside a range of regional reds.
