Ettore Germano Alta Langa Bianco DOCG Extra Brut 2020, 0,75 L

Piedmont is renowned for its red wines, but with the Alta Langa Bianco Extra Brut 2020, Ettore Germano masterfully proves that this region also produces sparkling wines of the highest calibre. Combining craftsmanship, tradition, and precision, this elegant spumante is crafted using the classic champagne-style bottle fermentation method.

Made from a refined cuvée of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, it boasts a fine structure, depth, and remarkable freshness. Extended maturation on the lees enhances its complexity, resulting in a delicate, persistent perlage.

The nose reveals subtle citrus notes, white flowers, and toasted almonds, complemented by hints of brioche and a distinctive minerality—a testament to its long bottle ageing.

On the palate, it impresses with precise acidity, a refined mousse, and a harmonious blend of flavours. Crisp apple and pear notes intertwine with delicate yeast nuances and a velvety creaminess. The structure is clean and focused, leading to a long, elegant finish with a subtle saline touch that leaves you craving the next sip.
