Bergamasca IGT

 Bergamasca IGT Biancoo

Bergamasca Bianco is a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot bianco from the Bergamo hills. In the glass it shows a bright light straw yellow colour. Full flavoured with great complexity on the palate, this wine combines the pleasing ripe fruitiness of Chardonnay and the floral, crispy aromas of the Pinot Bianco. The remarkably persistent aftertaste makes it a perfect match for the wide variety of typical Bergamasca “antipasti”, pasta dishes, and risotto. Serve at 10-12°C.
Grape Variety : Pinot Bianco and Chardonnay.
Vineyard : The grapes for this wine are grown on the slopes of vineyards situated on the hills outside Bergamo.
Vinification : the carefully selected hand harvested grapes are crushed, de-stemmed and soft pressed as soon as possible after picking. The juice is chilled immediately and naturally settled in order to retain freshness and to preserve the subtle perfumes.
Fermentation takes place in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
The wine then spends a relatively long time on the lees prior to bottling, and remains 3 months in bottle before release.
Alcohol : 12% Vol.
Closure : synthetic
Bottle Size : 0,75l.
