05/05/10 - NEW WHITE SPARKLING WINE 2010
"CUVEE EXTRADRY LENOTTI"
We are pleased to inform our customers about the presentation of a new wine, "SPUMANTE CUVEE EXTRADRY", that took the place of our "Spumante Lugana" (the costs of the Lugana increased too much and a price increase was required...and we decided to stop!!).
The idea to produce a own ""SPUMANTE CUVEE LENOTTI" was in our mind already from many years and, after different tests, we are now ready with this Spumante with a sure interesting relationship "high quality"/"price".
We decided to use two grapes: the famous grape "PINOT GRIGIO" and the less known grape, but autoctone and traditional for our area, called "INCROCIO MANZONI", separately harvested and pressed, blended when mosts, vinified and transformed in Spumante with Charmat method.
This is a not too dry Spumante (our "CUVEE" has 15,8 g/l sugar and 5,30 g/l acidity that classify our Spumante in the category EXTRADRY that for the italian rules is less dry then BRUT), very fuity and easy to drink, following the trendy sucess of the Prosecco (that is not produced in our area).
We presented the first samples during last Vinitaly and the response of all customers that tasted it was more than positive.
