A blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir that sits on the lees for over 48 months and receives a dosage of 5g/l. A luminous, golden-straw color with a very fine and creamy effervescence for the estate’s showcase cuvée for which the riddling is rigorously done by hand on wooden racks. The aromatic profile defines the style with fresh and, at the same time, delicate notes of renetta apple, candied citrus and white peach and nuances of almond shortcrust pastry and verbena. The mouthfeel is dynamically vivacious and brings a sensation of citrus to the palate with a juicy and rewarding progression towards a saline and harmonious finish.
The Bava family are an authentic standard bearer of quality in the area of Alta Langa and Cocchi has marked 130 years of success, adding Alta Langa to its 19th century banner of vermouth.
