Description
Alessandra Divella Rosé de Saignée is a sparkling rosé wine of great authenticity and elegance, produced in Gussago, in the easternmost part of the Franciacorta area. This wine is a testimony to the natural production philosophy of Alessandra Divella, who preserves nature and the peculiar characteristics of Gussago in her wines, without the use of chemicals and with total respect for the rhythms of nature.
Winemaking
Alessandra Divella Rosé de Saignée is made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes, following a meticulous process that includes a spontaneous alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts in oak barrels and a second fermentation in the bottle according to the classic method. The wine is aged for 54 months on the lees, which contributes to its complexity and depth of flavour. This production method, known as"saignée" or "salasso" in Italian, involves extracting the must from red grapes in maceration when it reaches the colour and extraction desired by the vigneron, a technique that distinguishes this rosé from those produced by blending white and red wines.
Taste
Alessandra Divella Rosé de Saignée presents itself in the glass with a pale pink colour and a fine, persistent perlage. On the nose, it offers fascinating aromas of strawberry, red flowers, bread crust, dried fruit, pastry and custard. On the palate, it is creamy, sharp, deep and refined, with a complexity that seduces from the first sip. The taste experience is enriched by a vibrant freshness and a saline-mineral component that invites further sipping. This sparkling wine stands out not only for its structure and texture, but also for its ability to offer a unique sensory experience, marked by the concentration of fruit and a perfect balance between body and freshness.
Elegance, depth and authenticity are the pillars of this Rosé de Saignée, making it an exceptional choice to accompany everything from fish dishes and white meats to selections of cured meats and mature cheeses.
