Altemasi Trento Riserva Graal Brut 2016
An elegant classic sparkling wine Riserva Millesimato that Cavit produces only with grapes from great vintages. Graal derives from medieval Latin with the meaning of vessel, this name gained notoriety in the cycle of King Arthur's novels because it was associated with the cup used by Jesus during the Last Supper.

Perlage

Fine and persistent, white foam.

Colour

Straw yellow with greenish reflections.

Bouquet

A complex, well-defined nose with hints of apple and peach, accompanied by sweet hints of almond.

Flavour

Balanced and rounded on the palate. A marked acidity brings the vein, structure and great persistence to the fore.
