This is the number one sparkling wine from the Bortolomiol traditional line. The highlights of the aromatic spectrum here are cleanliness and finesse. The fruity hints are very strong, with sharp green apple and citrus standing out and complemented by fresh floral hints. The agile flavor developing on the palette is felt at once, vital and dry. The freshness of this wine makes it ideal as an aperitif with sea food and with dishes dressed with extra virgin olive oil, such as fish salad. It also goes very well with lard crostini.
