What kind of wine is Spumante 'Puro' Rosé 2019 - Movia

The Spumante 'Puro' Rosé 2019 - Movia is a unique Metodo Classico, produced in the green hills of Collio, on the border between Slovenia and Friuli Venezia Giulia. It is a wine that best expresses the natural philosophy of the Movia winery: no shortcuts, no additives, only time, skill, and the experience of the winemaker. This rosé is made from late harvest grapes, meticulously hand-picked, resulting in a wine that combines elegance and authenticity. It is a sparkling wine with a free character, consistent with Movia's "pure" vision: vintage in the glass, territory in the goblet.

Vintage details

The 2019 harvest in Collio was characterized by balanced weather conditions, with a mild summer and a dry autumn. These conditions allowed for perfect grape ripening, ensuring freshness and aromatic concentration. The late harvest allowed for riper berries, giving the wine a complex yet always lively structure.

Winemaking and aging

The production of Spumante 'Puro' Rosé 2019 - Movia follows an entirely natural process. After soft pressing, the must macerates on the skins for approximately 24 hours, a short but sufficient time to extract color and delicate aromas. Fermentation occurs spontaneously with only indigenous yeasts, without the addition of chemical products or preservatives. The wine then ages for about four years in barriques, developing complexity and finesse. The second fermentation in the bottle does not occur with the classic addition of "liqueur de tirage" (a mixture of sugar and yeasts), but with fresh must from the same wine. This approach allows for natural refermentation, consistent with the winery's biodynamic philosophy. The wine is not disgorged (i.e., the yeast sediment is not removed), thus retaining all its natural components.

Tasting notes

Color

Nose
