Piemonte DOC Metodo Classico
The Piemonte DOC Metodo Classico Bianca Terra Chardonnay from Cantina Sei Castelli is an elegant expression of Chardonnay grown on the rolling hills of Piedmont. The vineyards thrive on calcareous-clay soils, ensuring optimal grape ripening and imparting a distinctive finesse to the wine. Produced using the Metodo Classico, this sparkling wine undergoes an initial fermentation in stainless steel, preserving the fruit’s freshness. The subsequent bottle fermentation and extended aging on lees develop its aromatic complexity and refined structure. Regular bâtonnage enriches the wine with creaminess and depth. In the glass, it shines with a brilliant straw yellow hue, enhanced by a fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet is intense and harmonious, revealing elegant notes of citrus, green apple, and white flowers, enriched by delicate hints of hazelnut and bread crust, a hallmark of its prolonged lees aging. On the palate, it stands out for its vibrant freshness, perfect balance between acidity and softness, and a minerality that adds depth to each sip. The finish is long, refined, and slightly savory. Perfect for elegant toasts and special occasions, this sparkling wine pairs beautifully with oysters, shellfish, fish tartare, and delicate first courses. Its versatility also makes it ideal for sophisticated aperitifs.

The name Sei Castelli (Six Castles) is inspired by the six historic castles that dominate these picturesque villages, offering breathtaking landscapes that frame the rolling hills of Monferrato—a land historically dedicated to viticulture. Thanks to a unique combination of calcareous-clay soils, favorable altitudes, and a temperate climate, the winery fully expresses Barbera’s potential, crafting wines with remarkable character and authenticity. Beyond Barbera d’Asti DOCG, the winery produces a selection of wines that embody Monferrato’s winemaking traditions. Among them, the Nizza DOCG, made from carefully selected Barbera grapes, stands as a symbol of local excellence.

What is special about Metodo Classico Bianca Terra Brut Piemonte DOC 2022 - Barbera Sei Castelli ?
The peculiarity of Italian Metodo Classico sparkling wines lies in their ability to tell the story of different territories through a rigorous and fascinating production process. Starting from the refermentation in the bottle and the long rest on the yeasts, these wines develop finesse, aromatic complexity and an elegant and persistent bubble. But what makes the Italian panorama unique is the incredible variety of terroirs, microclimates and vines - both international and native - which give the Metodo Classico a multifaceted and profoundly territorial identity, which goes well beyond the boundaries of the most famous denominations.
