Description
A classic method brut sparkling wine from Trentino-Alto Adige, 13% ABV, produced by Dorigati. Blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco. 0.75L bottle. A tribute to the history and tradition of the Dorigati family, which has been producing excellent wines since 1858. The name comes from a local legend, which tells of a Basilisk that resided in Castel San Gottardo in Mezzocorona, terrorizing the inhabitants of the Piana Rotaliana. Intense and complex, slightly citrusy, with notes of baked apple and a hint of pastry. Fine and persistent perlage. Extremely smooth sensation, thanks to a good structure and balanced acidity. Extremely fresh on the palate.

| Story | The name derives from a local legend, which tells of a Basilisk that dwelt in Castel San Gottardo di Mezzocorona, terrorising the inhabitants of the Piana Rotaliana. A knight, Count Firmian, wearing iron armour (hence Om de Fer), killed the Basilisk, freeing the land from terror and destruction. With this classical method, we wanted to celebrate this liberation and the return to life. |
