Abissi Metodo Classico 2018 Bisson, the Portofino Spumante Dosaggio Zero in Double Magnum format

Abissi Metodo Classico 2018 is a Ligurian sparkling wine with a strong identity, crafted by Bisson Società Agricola, which interprets the Portofino territory with an original and recognizable style. Made with bianchetta from the Verici vineyards in Sestri Levante and Riva Trigoso, with a small addition of Vermentino, it is born as a Metodo Classico Dosaggio Zero and stands out for its marine character, essentiality, and deep territoriality.

Territory and wine style

This Abissi Metodo Classico 2018 belongs to the Portofino Spumante Metodo Classico DOC designation and tells the story of Liguria through a modern and unconventional interpretation. The choice of aging at sea, about 70 meters deep, is not only a distinctive narrative element but also helps define the image of a sparkling wine authentically linked to its environment. The Dosaggio Zero enhances its precision, taste tension, and expressive purity.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a deep and brilliant straw-yellow color, crossed by a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, mineral and briny sensations emerge, accompanied by vegetal hints and nuances of Mediterranean scrub on the finish. The sip is well-structured, savory, and decisive, with a dry and tense progression that enhances freshness, verticality, and character. The absence of dosage leaves room for a clear, direct profile with great personality.

Recommended pairings

Abissi Metodo Classico 2018 is perfect with raw fish, oysters, tartare, shellfish, and seafood dishes with a clear flavor. It also pairs well with light fried foods, seafood appetizers, seafood risottos, and dishes based on white fish. Its savoriness makes it interesting even with fresh cheeses and Ligurian cuisine dishes, where it balances the aromatic component and the delicacy of the ingredients.

Serving temperature

Serve Abissi Metodo Classico 2018 at an ideal temperature of 6-8 °C, to enhance its finesse, tension, and aromatic complexity. It does not require long oxygenation; it is sufficient to open it gently and serve it in wide sparkling wine glasses, to best capture its marine profile and the persistence of the perlage.
