Della
A dry style sparkling made by the traditional methode. The 2003 vintage is
100% Pinot. After fermentation in the bottle, the wine has spent five
years on yeast lees. This has given the wine wonderful complexity,
richness and some bready characters. The wine was disgorged (yeast
sediment removed) in January 2008. It has a fine even bead which lasts
very well.
assessment
Colour: A
yellow straw colour.
Bouquet: Attractive bready yeast nose that is very complex and appealing
Palate: Lovely rich, complex, balanced palate. Bready, yeasty characters predominant early, complemented by strawberry fruit notes. The mid palate has a richness that fills the palate and lasts in the mouth long after the wine has been swallowed.
food accompaniment
A lovely wine to enjoy when celebrating or as an aperitif.
