Nicosia Sosta Tre Santi Etna Rosato Metodo Classico Brut 2021
The extraordinary versatility of Nerello Mascalese also allows the production of classic method rosé sparkling wines of absolute excellence. Such as the new Sosta Tre Santi Etna Rosato Brut Millesimato with zero dosage, produced with selected grapes from the high lava terraces on the south-eastern slope of the volcano. After about 20 months of ageing on the lees in the bottle, the result is a rosé with an intense, brilliant colour and soft, persistent perlage. With great freshness, tanginess and softness, it displays a broad and complex aromatic range from floral to fruity, from honeyed notes to sweet spices.

Perlage

Fine, soft and persistent.

Colour

Pink with coppery nuances.

Bouquet

Complex aroma, sensations ranging from floral to red fruits and spices, hints of dried flowers, acacia honey, cinnamon and cloves.

Flavour

Warm and structured in the mouth, it has a nice freshness and a soft and elegant taste, in which the same honeyed and spicy notes are noticeable. A tasty wine with great persistence.

Pairing

It pairs well with risotto with shellfish, tasty tuna dishes, and stewed cod, but also with cured meats and semi-aged cheeses, roast beef, and spicy meats.

Soil composition Volcanic, very rich in minerals.
Harvest Between the end of September and the beginning of October about 12 days earlier than the harvesting of grapes for Etna Rosso.
Vinification After a short cold maceration in contact with the skins, the harvested grapes are softly pressed, and only the first pressing is destined for this product, resulting in yields of 50-60%. Fermentation lasts 3 weeks at a controlled temperature. The basic wine, thus obtained, remains in stainless steel tanks until the following spring, when it is placed in the bottle with the yeasts to start the second fermentation.
Ageing On the lees and fine lees for about 20 months, followed by remuage, disgorgement, filling and packaging. It then ages in the bottle for about a further 6 months before marketing.
Allergens Contains sulphites
Pairing It pairs well with risotto with shellfish, tasty tuna dishes, and stewed cod, but also with cured meats and semi-aged cheeses, roast beef, and spicy meats.
