Spumante Passerina Brut Olimpus 2023 - Cantina Colli Ripani

The Olimpus Passerina Brut Sparkling Wine from Cantina dei Colli Ripani is a delightful wine, meticulously crafted from Passerina grapes, known for their lively acidity and aromatic refinement. Handpicked towards the end of September, the grapes undergo a careful transformation through the Martinotti method, achieving a harmonious balance of complexity and freshness. Pouring a glass of Olimpus, you are greeted with a radiant straw yellow color and a symphony of fine, persistent bubbles ascending to the surface. On the nose, a delicate bouquet of yellow flesh fruits mixed with subtle floral notes unfolds, creating an inviting aroma that beckons the first sip. On the palate, this sparkling wine offers a crisp, refreshing taste with a fine mineral texture, reflecting the fruity and floral characteristics of the wine. Served as an elegant aperitif or paired with a selection of light seafood dishes, this effervescent wine enhances every culinary experience with its lively acidity and clean finish. It's the ideal choice for celebrating special moments or elevating everyday meals with a touch of typically Italian elegance.
