Description
What kind of wine is it
Santa Barbara Stefano Antonucci Le Vaglie Bianco Dry Zero Alcohol is a non-alcoholic beverage made from still white wine that faithfully expresses the aromatic profile of Verdicchio. On the nose, it opens with broad and complex aromas, characterised by notes of spices and ripe fruit, enhanced by an evocative hint of quince. On the palate, it is rounded, distinguished by a soft and persistent sip that fades into a fruity and balanced finish, ideal for accompanying fish dishes and fresh cheeses.
Where does it come from
This beverage originates from an area of the Marche region historically dedicated to viticulture, from vineyards located at around 260 metres above sea level. The roots of the vines delve into a distinctive tuffaceous and sandy soil, a natural element that gives the Verdicchio a pronounced aromatic definition. The interaction between the particular soil composition and the local microclimate encourages the perfect ripening of the grapes, transferring the genuine identity of the Marche region into the glass through bold aromas and a profile of great fullness.
How is it produced
The production process by Santa Barbara begins with the harvest carried out between the end of September and the first days of October. After a rigorous fermentation in steel, aimed at preserving the fragrance of the aromas, the wine undergoes membrane dealcoholisation by direct osmosis. This process uses only water, removing the alcoholic part without the use of chemicals. The precision of this method ensures meticulous aromatic purity, keeping the density and enveloping nature of the original structure intact.
