Movia Puro 2022 Spumante Bianco

A Slovenian sparkling wine from Movia, made from late-harvest grapes picked by hand. Fermentation uses natural yeasts, with 24 hours of skin maceration. The must goes into barriques without added chemicals or preservatives and matures for four years. Unlike classic method sparkling wines, no liqueur de tirage is added for bottle refermentation; instead fresh must with its own yeasts is used. Sulphur dioxide is practically non-existent at 9 mg/l. It is released without disgorgement, with the lees still in the bottle, so manual disgorgement is needed at opening. It suits fish, shellfish, cured meats and cheeses.
