Bellenda Sei Uno, Extra Brut Rive di Carpesica 2021 – Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG

(the Glera grape variety comes from the Carpesica region, from the vineyard planted at 180 meters above sea level, on clay-limestone soils of moraine origin. Vinification by the classic method, second fermentation in the bottle with aging on lees for 12 months and 6 months in cellars after disgorging) The wine has a lemon yellow color with green reflections. The nose expresses the pronounced and refined aromas of aging on lees (fresh bread, brioche, toasted yeast in the background), an aromatic floral bouquet (acacia, chamomile, apple blossom, orange blossom in the background) and notes of fresh green fruits (green apple, green apple skin), a touch of chiseled and tangy citrus (lime zest, yellow lemon, grapefruit, a smoky hint of bergamot), enveloped in juicy notes of white peach and apricot. We also see subtle herbaceous aromas of mint and white tea, which appear after aeration, and a limestone and saline minerality. The palate is refreshing and offers precision and elegance. On the attack, we find the racy saline and limestone minerality, accompanied in the mid-palate by notes of citrus (yellow lemon, lime zest, lime), a delicate bitterness of grapefruit and bergamot, by gourmandize of apricot and white peach, as well as by a fine floral bouquet (acacia, apple blossom). The finish is long, lively, with sharp acidity, a precise saline mineral framework, good bitterness and a touch of yeast and hazelnut on the finish. The foam is silky and delicate. A refined and elegant Prosecco.
