Imagine the sun-drenched hills of Veneto, Italy, where the ancient Durella grape thrives, nurtured by volcanic soil and kissed by cool mountain breezes. This is the birthplace of Durello Brut, a sparkling wine that embodies the region's unique character and the winery's dedication to excellence. Cantina Durello, a producer deeply rooted in the Veneto terroir, crafts this sparkling wine with the traditional methods to make a unique spumante.
This wine is made with 100% Durella grapes, an indigenous variety of Veneto region. This grape variety delivers intense acidity and minerality. The winemaking team's careful attention to detail, from grape selection to fermentation, ensures a consistent and high-quality Durello Brut.
Once uncorked, the bottle releases a delicate stream of bubbles, the glass emits aromas of green apple, lemon zest, and a subtle hint of almond. On the palate, a refreshing acidity dances alongside flavors of ripe pear and white grapefruit. The minerality, a hallmark of the volcanic soil, adds complexity and depth, leading to a crisp, clean finish. Its balanced structure and vibrant acidity make it an ideal partner for a variety of culinary pairings.
It's not just a wine, it's a celebration of life's simple pleasures. It is perfect as an apéritif or paired with seafood, light salads, or creamy cheeses. Try it alongside grilled shrimp skewers with a lemon-herb marinade, or with a classic Venetian dish like sarde in saor (sweet and sour sardines). It complements sushi and sashimi beautifully, and its crispness cuts through the richness of fried appetizers like arancini.
Durello Brut will invigorate your senses. Whether you're toasting a special occasion or simply unwinding after a long day, this wine promises to bring a touch of Venetian sunshine to your glass.
