Ostro Sparkling Pinot Nero Friuli 750 ML

This wine shows terrific balance and harmony. Quite delicate and smooth texture on the long finish.n n Producer Informationn The estate practices sustainable farming, taking care to maintain a balance at all times between their vines and the surrounding environment. Vineyards follow the course of the Livenza River; here soils combine not only the typical alluvial gravel of the Grave appellation but also significant deposits of clay and limestone, unique in the region. The Alps to the northeast provide cooling winds in summer as does the Adriatic Sea to the south. Days are long and sunshine abundant, helping grapes reach perfect maturity. Grapes are harvested by hand, and pressed under gas to prevent oxydation and keep fruit aromas fresh. Secondary fermentation happens in tank (Charmat method); wines are aged for three months on fine lees.
