Bortolomiol’s “IUS NATURAE” is a fragrant, fruity, austere and mineral Prosecco made from 100% Glera grape variety, with a fine and persistent perlage.
Harvested in early September, vinification will undergo classic white wine process “off skins” by gentle pressing. A primary fermentation at controlled temperature with selected yeasts.
The second fermentation occurs in large tanks following the Metodo Martinotti, with foaming taking place within 25-30days. Refinement on the yeasts for about 3 months, followed by 2 more months refinement in the bottle.
The appearance shows a straw yellow colour indicating a great energy. The mousse is fine and persistent, and a gorgeous nose invites with its deep austere bouquet of fragrant fruity, flowery and mineral notes of acacia honey and almond flower.
The palate is vigorous, delivering a lovely clean and harmonious sip, with notes of pear and apple, minerality and elegance. The sweetness is controlled by its zesty and exquisite freshness. Long-lasting finish.
Food-match: a classic food companion with oysters, seafood starters, fish courses and vegan dishes. With its minerality and vigour though it would wonderfully pair also with snails cooked with garlic, parsley and wild herbs.
Recommended serving-temperature of 6°-8°C.
