Alta Langa Brut Millesimato D.O.C.G 12,5%
Alta Langa is one of Piedmont's most prestigious and representative sparkling wines in Italy.
Alta Langa Bordà Le Clivie is produced in a hilly limestone-clay area 450 metres above sea level, influenced by the Alps and the Ligurian Sea. It is a vintage brut sparkling wine produced using the classic method.
The grapes are harvested at the end of August, manually in small baskets. This is followed by the pressing of the whole grapes and the first fermentation of the free-run juice. Fermentation then takes place in the bottle, resting in the cellars “sur lattes” at a constant temperature of 15-18°. The ageing period lasts over 30 months. This is followed by the freezing of the bottle necks, disgorging, sugar dosage and finally packaging.
Alta Langa Bordà Le Clivie is the result of an exceptional terroir and consolidated savoir-faire. The result is a sparkling wine with an intense and complex aroma and a full, savoury and enveloping flavour.

Charlton Charlemagne Grand Cru 2022 13.5%
Pale gold in its youth and adorned with green reflections, Corton-Charlemagne takes on amber and more yellow nuances with age. Infinitely delicate, its bouquet expresses, in buttery tones, baked apple, citrus, pineapple, lime blossom, fern, juniper, cinnamon and flint. Honeyed notes are frequent. Leather and truffles are an escort to
old vintages (up to 25 to 30 years). The glass and the palate are filled with a powerful breath. With its virulent richness, the Chardonnay surprises here by its concentration, its distinction and its balance. Rarely does the grace of the grape variety establish such a close link with the character of its terroir.
Sommelier's tip
The breath, richness and distinction of Corton-Charlemagne indicate a remarkable acidity, perfectly controlled by a round opulence in the mouth, which should be combined with noble and delicate dishes, but themselves powerful and aromatic.

Le Bessole Corvina Veronese IGT 14.5%
How it's made
An accurate selection of the best bunches in the vineyard, together with the use of autochthonous grapes, gives a good structure and tannicity to the wine and additionally helps it get a better result from the aging process in oak barrels.
The grapes are left in the drying shed for a short maceration of 30 days, and, after a soft pressing, followed by a slow fermentation in stainless steel vats. After that, the wine is aged for 30 more days in French oak barrels, and is put in steel tanks until the bottling phase.

With the use of this particular technique we can obtain a wine that will be less acidic on the palate and with a more intense flavor.
