Trento Spumante 'Missoni Green Limited Edition' Ferrari

Ferrari's Trento Spumante "Missoni Green Limited Edition" is a product born of the encounter between two symbolic brands on the Italian scene: Missoni and Ferrari. The label that distinguishes this Limited Edition is particular, featuring the classic Missoni chessboard that further enhances the elegance of the mountain Chardonnay. The winery is the fruit of a centuries-old tradition that first saw Giulio Ferrari at the helm, who was able to discover the great potential of the Chardonnay grape variety and made it into an excellent product of exclusive quality. Today, the winery is in the hands of the Lunelli heirs, who have learned from the teachings of their predecessors, but have also been able to bring new life to the work in the cellar and in the vineyard, so that the brand can survive the inexorable passage of time.

The grapes for Ferrari's Trento Spumante "Missoni Green Limited Edition" grow in a climate characterised by rainy springs and hot, sunny summers, with substantial temperature swings between day and night, ideal for perfect ripening of the grapes and their aromatic bouquet; winters are notoriously cold and snowy, which ensures good hydration of the soil when the vines are reborn. The altitude is about 600 metres above sea level and the vineyards are located on steep slopes of the mountains that frame the city of Trento. The grapes are harvested by hand and the bunches are carefully selected for an excellent final result; in the cellar, the alcoholic fermentation is in stainless steel and the resting period on the lees is around 40 months.

The colour of Ferrari's Trento Spumante "Missoni Green Limited Edition" is a brilliant, intense golden yellow and the perlage is fine, delicate and persistent. The nose has aromas of white summer flowers, ripe yellow-fleshed fruit, candied citrus fruits in combination with classic hints of toastiness ranging from hazelnut to bread crust; on the palate it is elegant, creamy and enveloping with an extreme power on the finish that entices the drinker. In pairing, it is ideal with fish soups, lobster and seafood as a condiment for pasta dishes; also perfect with mature and blue cheeses. An ideal product for celebrating important milestones or special family occasions.
