Ammirose
The vineyard
Geographic position: Zagarolo (RM), Lazio Region
Soil: silicon 75%, clay 25%
Age of the vines: 17 years old
Trellising System: Guyot
Vine Density: 4500 vines/ha
Production: around 45 q/ha
The Wine
Ammirose is an unrepeatable experiment which comes from a volcanic soil extremely suited for the production of excellent sparkling wines. It is a Traditional Method sparkling wine Pas Dosé aged on yeasts for 10 years in our tufa cave at the constant temperature of 12,5 °C. We produced only 300 bottles from a slightly early Merlot harvest. The whole process is carried out manually: the bottling, that takes place inside the cave itself, the remuage sur pupitre, as well as the dégorgement à la volée.
Grape variety: Merlot 100%
Alcohol: 12,5%
Method of production
Method: Traditional; Pas Dosé; dégorgement à la volée
First wine-making: Temperature-controlled fermentation without skins for 12 days at 18°C
Aging in bottle: 10 years on fine lees inside the tufa cave at 12/14 °C
Organoleptic properties
Perlage: elegant, fine, copious and persistent
Colour: cherry pink with copper highlights and pale pink shades, bright.
Nose: Very intense, with a distinct note of currant and fresh strawberries, raspberry and apple. Distinct chalk minerality, reflection of our terroir.
Taste: Crunchy, elegant, very fresh, saline and persistent.
Pairings
Perfect to be drunk alone at the end of your soirée but even to match a whole meal. It can be paired with tasty dishes including light meat dishes.
