This elegant, traditional-method sparkling has dried apricot and lemon curd on the palate. Great for the heat, whether that's in the summer sun or by a fireplace.
Benjamin Bridge is building a world-class reputation for Sparkling wines from a terroir that allows a long, slow, ripening of grapes for amazing acidity.
Hand-harvested organically farmed Jacquere and Altesse grapes from southwest-facing vineyard ‘Les Chateaux’ in Chignin. Old vines (50 years), densely planted on silty limestone soils worked with horse-plow. Carefully sorted whole clusters, delicately pressed and fermented in the tank without additions. Natural malolactic fermentation, 4 months aging in the tank.
One of Prosecco's best small family producers. This is what Sparkling wines in the region looked like before industrialization: high acidity, dry, and bottled unfiltered.
