What kind of wine is Spumante Brut Nature Metodo Classico 'Nature' Magnum - Monsupello (cased)

The Spumante Brut Nature Metodo Classico 'Nature' Magnum - Monsupello (cased) is an excellence from Oltrepò Pavese, one of Italy's most suitable areas for the production of Pinot Noir sparkling wines. It is made using the Metodo Classico, the same method used for French Champagnes, which involves secondary fermentation in the bottle and a long aging on the lees. The result is an elegant, dry wine of great finesse, designed for those who love authentic and natural bubbles, without added sugars after disgorgement (hence the designation "Brut Nature").

Vintage Details

The vintage of this sparkling wine perfectly reflects the favorable climatic conditions of the Pavese hills, where sunny days and cool nights guaranteed healthy grapes rich in aromas. The manual harvest, carried out between late August and early September, selects only the best bunches of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, maintaining the freshness and balance that characterize the finished wine.

Vinification and Aging

After a first fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay cuvée is created. The wine then undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle, according to the Metodo Classico, and remains on the lees for at least 30 months. This long contact with the lees imparts complexity, creaminess, and elegant notes of bread and hazelnut. After disgorgement, the wine does not receive any added liqueur d’expédition, maintaining its purity and natural character.
