What is special about this wine?

This is a red slightly sparkling wine produced by the grape variety of Freisa from the Piedmont region.  Freisa is less common today than other Piedmontese varieties like Barbera or Dolcetto but Freisa was extremely popular at the end of the 19th century.  This wine is ruby-red colour, with a floral and ripe fruit aroma and hints of blackberry. Full-bodied wine, with a crisp acidity, rich and soft tannins, finesse and excellent balance, great complexity and a long lingering finish. This wine is slightly sparkling.

Designation: Langhe Freisa D.O.C. Vivace

Grapes: 100% Freisa

Winemaking: Fermentation starts with part of the whole clusters. A small portion of unfermented must is removed from the pressed part and added before bottling.
Alcoholic fermentation lasts about 15 days with a limited number of foulage and pumping over operations. After racking, the wine undergoes a slow malolactic fermentation that lasts until late spring. When completed, the whole mass is bottled and continues the fermentation process in the bottle. This is a fundamental process to “create” the typical bubble perceived on the palate.

Aging: The bottles need to be kept upright in a cool room to regularly complete fermentation. Wine to be served at 10-12 C°. It has a good aging potential, as the natural CO2 is the best antioxidant known.
