The Alta Langa Extra Brut by Ettore Germano, crafted with meticulous care in the high lands between 500 and 570 meters above sea level, is a perfect expression of harmony between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. This sparkling wine, a product of the strict DOCG standards that guide every stage of production, from grape selection to pressing, to separate fermentation in steel for Pinot Noir and in wood for Chardonnay, stands out for its purity. Aging on the lees enhances its aromatic complexity, while the absence of liqueur d’expedition reveals its intense genuineness. It displays a lively straw-yellow color, enriched by a persistent perlage. The olfactory experience is captivated by a bouquet of aromas, ranging from bread crust to dried fruit, with delicate floral hints. On the palate, it promises a fresh and enveloping experience, marked by a creaminess that refreshes, leading to a long and satisfying finish. Perfect as an aperitif, it excels with sophisticated fish dishes, eggs, and truffle, celebrating the meeting of elegance and sensory refinement.
