Colomba Tradizionale Iginio Massari Alta Pasticceria e Alta Langa Fontanafredda

The Box Pasquale Iginio Massari and Fontanafredda is a unique experience that brings with it the best of Piedmontese confectionery and winemaking. A perfect marriage between the confectionery art of Iginio Massari Alta Pasticceria and the wine tradition of Fontanafredda, a historic winery that has marked the history of Piedmontese wine production since 1858.

Colomba Massari is an authentic masterpiece of balance and refinement, born from meticulous workmanship that involves four leavings with controlled time and temperature and two doughs, for a total of 65 hours. Its extraordinarily soft dough is embellished with cubes of orange peel, which release a lively and enveloping citrus freshness. To complete this excellence, an exquisite icing made with almonds covers the top, trapping granulated sugar and whole raw almonds. Thanks to natural leavening, this colomba combines tradition and innovation, releasing a rich and harmonious aromatic bouquet, capable of conquering even the most demanding palates. Every bite is a sensory journey between delicate and crunchy textures, an experience that makes Easter even more special. Limited availability, for a cake that is a true expression of exclusivity and craftsmanship.

Next to the dessert, we find Fontanafredda's Alta Langa Extra Brut "Blanc de Blancs", a Metodo Classico that celebrates the excellence of the Piedmont territory. Made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, this vintage sparkling wine stands out for its creamy, persistent perlage and elegant aromas of bread crust, dried fruit and honey. Ageing in the bottle for 36 months gives this wine a lively freshness, which goes perfectly with dessert. It is ideal to accompany refined dishes such as a tempura of crispy vegetables or a rich seafood salad, but also to make dessert time special during Easter lunch.
