Our Cantariva Brut Lugana D.O.P. Metodo Classico is the Estate’s top sparkling wine: it is made from specially selected grapes, picked early in order to obtain a must with higher acidity, thus guaranteeing greater freshness and fragrance.
The
Cantariva Brut Lugana D.O.P. Metodo Classico è l’espressione migliore dell’esperienza spumantistica dell’Azienda. Nasce da una selezione di uve raccolte anticipatamente, per ottenere un mosto con più acidità in modo da garantire maggiore freschezza e fragranza.
Il Cantariva Brut Lugana D.O.P. Metodo Classico is made by the Estate from Turbiana di Lugana grapes and is produced as a vintage wine in exceptional years. Its characteristic “bread crust” nose develops thanks to the wine’s maturation on its lees for at least 18 months.
It is released for consumption after a minimum of 3 months’ “marriage” with the liqueur d’expédition, whose secret recipe has been handed down since 1990.
