Malvasia Frizzante 'Primavera' Monte delle Vigne

The sparkling Malvasia 'Primavera', produced by the Monte delle Vigne winery, is a lively and vivacious version of one of the most widely cultivated grape varieties in the Colli di Parma area. Malvasia di Candia, an aromatic grape of Greek origin, widely diffused in almost all the countries bordering theMare Nostrum, lends itself very well to sparkling with the Charmat Method, which allows the rich aromatic content of the vine to be preserved and enhanced above all. Very perfumed and pleasantly fruity, it expresses a perfect balance between the rich ripeness of the fruit and the clear final freshness.

"Primavera' is a Frizzante Malvasia that originates in the heart of wine Emilia. The Monte delle Vigne estate was established in the early 1980s and today represents one of the most interesting realities in the area. The vineyards cover an area of 40 hectares and, since 2021, have been conducted under certified organic farming. The wines perfectly reflect the tradition of the area and possess a straightforward and immediate character. The grapes come from Malvasia di Candia vineyards located at an altitude of about 300 metres above sea level, facing east. The soils are calcareous-clayey in nature, very suitable for white varieties. After a gentle pressing, the must ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Refermentation takes place in autoclaves according to the Martinotti or Charmat method.

The white Malvasia Frizzante 'Primavera', produced by the Monte delle Vigne winery, faithfully represents the custom of these lands, which have always had a vocation for sparkling wines. To the eye, it has a brilliant straw yellow colour, crossed by a luminous perlage of good fineness and persistence. The bouquet is characterised by aromas of white flowers, orange blossom, citrus peel, ripe white-fleshed fruit, peach, pear, hints of almond and aromatic herbs of the Mediterranean maquis. On the palate, it is bountiful and harmonious, with a fragrant and fruity mouthfeel, savoury and good final persistence. The finish is dry and with a nice mineral freshness.
