Alta Langa 2021 Dosaggio Zero
The Alta Langa by Rizzi is a Metodo Classico sparkling wine of extreme precision, crafted to showcase the freshest and most vibrant side of the Treiso hills. Primarily a blend of Chardonnay (85%) with a touch of Pinot Nero (15%), this Pas Dosé (zero dosage) focuses entirely on verticality and purity. The vineyards, situated at altitudes up to 430 meters with cool exposures, ensure the sharp acidity essential for a high-caliber sparkling wine.
The production process is meticulous: after a soft pressing, the base wine ages for 8 months in stainless steel with constant bâtonnage, followed by a second fermentation in the bottle where it rests on its lees for at least 30 months. The result is a very fine and persistent perlage that carries clear aromas of grapefruit, white flowers, and nectarine. On the palate, it is broad, fragrant, and driven by a savory streak that brings energy to every sip. It is the perfect choice for those seeking a terroir-driven sparkling wine that is tense, crisp, and elegant.
