This single vineyard, vintage-dated biodynamic Prosecco is one of Italy's few sparkling wines to have earned the esteemed "cru" classification. Extended contact with the wine's lees (yeast cells) gives this classy sparkler Champagne-like aromas of freshly baked bread and a round, expansive texture in the mouth. Subtle notes of fresh apple and spiced pear amp up this wine's elegance and fruit-driven profile.
