Castello di Pomino Leonia Pomino Brut Millesimato 2017
Bold: a wine that conveys the desire to take new paths; courageous, determined, expressive and elegant like my great-great-grandmother Leonia, who has inspired me to make innovative choices. It was she who planted the French varietals at Pomino, vinifying them in the first Italian gravity-flow winery and receiving the gold medal at the Paris Expo in 1878. (Lamberto Frescobaldi)

Perlage

Fine, elegant perlage.

Colour

Straw yellow with golden hues.

Bouquet

The bouquet of this Metodo Classico wine is rich with mineral notes and hints of white spring flowers, including hawthorn. Secondary aromas include hints of acacia honey, patisserie and white fruit, including sweet September peach. Mature aromas of dried fruit round things off.

Flavour

The attack is clean and sharp, and its effervescence tantalises your taste buds without attacking them, resulting in a decidedly creamy feel. The finish is long and evokes the softness of caramel and the aromas of liquorice together with subtle toasted notes.

Harvest During the cooler hours of the day, the hand-harvested grapes arrive at the cellar in 15 kg crates, where they are slowly and gently pressed, which allows the must to be extracted from the heart of the fruit.
Vinification Once the cuvée is obtained, it undergoes a twelve-hour cold clarification process, a decisive requirement when it comes to creating an exceptional and clear sparkling wine base. After this process, controlled alcoholic fermentation slowly takes place, mainly in stainless steel at 16°C. French oak barriques, a portion of which are new, are used for a small percentage (15-20%) of the wine.
Ageing In the month of March following the harvest, the various cuvées are assembled, followed by the tirage and in-bottle re-fermentation, ageing on the lees for 30 months. The process concludes with remuage and degorgement followed by further ageing in bottles.
