Würm Blanc de Blancs 2008 Brut Nature

€ 39,00 € 35,00

This vintage-dated classic-method sparkling wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes partly fermented in French oak barrels. A fine and elegant Blanc de Blancs. In the spring following harvest, it undergoes its secondary fermentation in our cellars at a constant 14oC, where it remains for some 150 months. It is then disgorged and receives additional bottle-ageing for about one year. Appearing a rich straw yellow with golden highlights, it develops an abundant, silky mousse and a long-lingering bead of pin-point bubbles. The bouquet, generous and multi-layered, is redolent of vanilla and banana, alongside subtle hints of toasty oak and earthy mushroom. On the palate, it shows full, tangy favours, rich complexity, and a lengthy progression and finish that leaves the mouth dry and clean. ​​​​​​​ Ideal with first and second courses of fish, poultry, or veal and delicious with foie gras. It will develop further complexity during the three years after disgorging. If well-stored, it will gain even more richness on nose and palate over the following five years. Alcohol: 12,5% vol Size: 750 ml Serving at: 8°C

Pluck Blanc de Noirs 2012 Brut Nature

Our Riserva Blanc de Noirs is made from hillslope-grown Pinot Noir grapes and produced in the same style we developed in Bellenda’s very first years.

It is produced in the same style we developed in Bellenda’s very first years, maturing over many years at a constant temperature of 13°C. in our underground cellars.  In the flute, it appears a luminous, shimmering gold and develops a long-lingering bead of tiny, pin-point bubbles. The bouquet boasts fresh-baked pastry and toasted hazelnut, lifted by hints of vanilla, citrus, and lemongrass. The palate is elegant and multi-layered, with a magisterial balance between clean fruit and a tangy minerality. Pluck is ideal throughout the meal, in particular with full-flavored dishes, such as baked fish, and roasted poultry, veal, or game. It is delicious too with spaghetti alla carbonara or bucatini alla gricia.  It will develop further complexity during the three years after disgorging. If well-stored, it will gain even more richness on nose and palate over the following five years. Alcohol: 12% vol Size: 750 ml ​​​​​​​Serving at: 8°C

Saiph - Metodo Classico Talento Brut

€ 18,00

Saiph, made from 100% chardonnay grapes, is bottle refermented, in accord with the traditional method. The result is a sparkling wine of remarkable elegance, with the classic fragrance of freshbaked bread. Appearing a luminous straw yellow with delicate emerald highlights, it immediately develops in the glass a very leisurely bead of the tiniest bubbles. The bouquet is splendidly varietal, with well-integrated aromas, while the palate is dry and full-flavoured, with a long-lingering progression laden with scents of yeast and sweet almond. Saiph is perfect as a partner to fish-based antipasti and dishes such as octopus salad, fresh-water char, and risotto with clams. Size: 0,75 L Alcohol: 12,5% vol. To be served at 6°C
