Sparkling wine | Veneto, Italy
This Lessini Durello Brut Nature from Marcato is a testament to the unique terroir of the Veneto region and the distinctive Durella grape. Crafted using the Metodo Classico (traditional method), it undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle, resulting in fine, persistent bubbles and a complex flavor profile. On the nose, you'll be greeted with aromas of white flowers, green apple, and a hint of minerality. The palate is dry and refreshing, with vibrant acidity and flavors of citrus fruit, pear, and a touch of almond. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a pleasant, lingering sensation. Marcato is a family-owned winery with a long history of producing high-quality wines, and their commitment to sustainable viticulture ensures that their wines are not only delicious but also environmentally friendly. This Brut Nature is an excellent aperitif or accompaniment to seafood, shellfish, or light pasta dishes. Its crisp acidity cuts through richness, making it a perfect match for creamy sauces or fried foods. Also great with sushi, sashimi, or fresh salads. Consider serving it with appetizers like oysters, smoked salmon canapés, or arancini. If you appreciate a well-made sparkling wine with character and finesse, this Lessini Durello Brut Nature from Marcato is sure to impress. It is very versatile with food pairings and will be a conversation starter at your next gathering! The wine's aging potential is around 5-7 years and it is produced in limited quantities.
Wow, zesty and refreshing! Green apple & almond notes dance on the palate. Not my usual red, but I'm converted! Perfect with seafood. ✨
