Furlani Sur Lie Alpino Macerato 2019

Sur Lie Alpino Macerato is a sparkling wine produced by the Furlani winery in Pove Trento, Trentino. The Müller Thürgau and Gewruztraminer grapes come from plots at 720 meters above sea level, they macerate for about a week on the skins with spontaneous fermentation by indigenous yeasts. After pressing, the grapes ferment in the bottle at spring temperatures without the addition of sulfur dioxide, where they remain for approximately two years before being marketed. The sip is fun, fresh, lively and slender, with pear and citrus fruits on the nose. It’s a super fun drink obtained from a combination that is not at all banal, perfect in combination with fatty fish
