Description
In a nutshell:
Imagine freshly spritzed honeysuckle and apricots on a dappled summer lawn - all that carefree sweetness, but with a surprisingly elegant finish.
The lowdown:
Forget the booming Prosecco bands, this is an Italian sparkler with a quieter charm. Think of a summer garden party bathed in sunshine. Imagine gentle bubbles tickling your nose, followed by a burst of juicy red apple, peach, and a hint of mandarin. Don't be fooled by its sweetness - there's a zippy freshness keeping things lively. This little gem comes from Moscato grapes grown in the sun-drenched hills of Asti. Unlike Prosecco, it sees a short stint on its skins before fermentation, adding a touch of richness. The process is then halted early to capture that delightful sweetness and low alcohol level. The result? A fun, easy-drinking sparkler that's surprisingly well-made. Think of it as the life of the party, but in a whisper rather than a shout.
The Producer:
Tenuta Olim Bauda boasts a fascinating history. Once the jewel in the Bertolino family's negociant business in the 1960s, the winery faced a period of closure following Agostino Bertolino's passing in 1985. Thankfully, the family's passion for winemaking endured. In 2000, a new generation - Dino, Diana and Gianni Bertolino - took the helm, reviving the estate's fortunes. Today, Tenuta Olim Bauda flourishes once more, meticulously crafting wines exclusively from their prized vineyards in Piedmont. Quality is paramount, with only the finest grapes selected for each bottling. This dedication to excellence has seen them reclaim their place amongst Piedmont's top producers.
When to drink:
A gently sparkling, honey-sweet wine for a summer afternoon, perfect with a simple Victoria sponge or a bowl of strawberries and cream.
Suitable for Vegans
