The Extra Dry Cuvée Blanché by Montalbera sparkling wine was born on the hills of Monferrato, located in the municipality of Castagnole Monferrato, in the province of Asti.
The sparkling wine is made of Barbera with the Martinotti method. The second fermentation takes place in pressurized tanks at a controlled temperature, while the ageing takes place in stainless steel tanks and subsequently in a positioned bottle.
In pale straw yellow with fine and persistent perlage, the nose is expressed with delicate floral notes and distinct hints of white fruits and green apple. The sip is smooth and balanced.
Perfect as an aperitif, it is excellent in the company of appetizers and white meats.
