Description
What kind of wine it is
Divella Spumante Blanc de Blancs Dosaggio Zero is an outstanding wine that brings out the best characteristics of Chardonnay. Made strictly following the Traditional Method, this wine stands out for its straw yellow colour with golden highlights and a fine, persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers a fragrant bouquet where floral aromas blend with warm pastry notes. On the palate, the complete absence of dosage provides a full, enveloping sip with exceptional purity of flavour.
Where it comes from
This sparkling wine originates from the Gussago area in Lombardy, a region with a deep winemaking tradition. The Divella winery interprets the landscape with an approach focused on enhancing the environment and the local microclimate. This results in a vibrant mineral freshness, typical of the area's soils. The outcome is an authentic representation of the terroir, giving the wine extraordinary expressive clarity and a structure capable of evolving beautifully over time.
How it is produced
Production begins with spontaneous micro-vinifications carried out by indigenous yeasts. After an initial period in barrels, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, followed by a prolonged ageing on the lees which enriches its texture with elegant nuances. The choice of pas dosé allows for the absolute integrity of the raw material to be maintained, preserving its original profile. Thanks to its characteristics, it pairs ideally with fish dishes, shellfish and fried seafood, and is also excellent with a selection of cheeses.
History and Curiosities
Originating from Gussago, Alessandra Divella's Blanc de Blancs Dosaggio Zero Sparkling Wine is the pure expression of Lombard excellence. This Traditional Method wine is made from Chardonnay grapes enhanced by spontaneous micro-vinifications, indigenous yeasts and skilful ageing in barriques. The bottle refermentation involves ageing on the lees for between two and eight years, enriching the wine with floral aromas and enticing pastry notes. A handcrafted creation with a fine perlage and an enveloping palate, characterised by great ageing potential over time.
