Sensorial analysis
Straw yellow in colour, slightly hazy, with a fine and creamy perlage that is fairly persistent in the glass. The bouquet is dominated by fermentative and mineral notes, framed by delicate aromatic herbs. On the palate, it is precise and beautifully balanced between acidity and salinity, dry on the finish and persistent. Lively, brisk bubbles.
History of Pinella
The origin of the Pinella grape is very ancient and can be traced along the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea. From the Middle Ages, it spread to the nearby regions, acquiring various names, including "Pinola," as it was called in the Euganean Hills. Periods of both neglect and appreciation followed for this white grape variety, which was reintroduced in the Euganean Hills in the early 2000s.
Pinella manages to maintain balance even in the driest years thanks to its pronounced acidity, late ripening and consistently low alcohol content. Therefore, in the context of sustainable production, we chose to cultivate it in areas that are challenging for other varieties, observing the results. While grapes from the highest altitudes are suitable for a second bottle fermentation, in warmer areas and hot years, we prefer to produce still white wines.
Pairings
Our Pinella Frizzante is perfect for an aperitif thanks to its light and lively structure. Excellent with dishes characterized by sweetish tendency and fattiness: fresh cheese, fried fish, vegetarian dishes, seafood and land-based first courses. Serve at 8°C.
