Description
La Scolca Blanc de Blanc Brut Riserva 2012: elegance from Gavi using the Classic Method
La Scolca Blanc de Blanc Brut Riserva 2012 is an Italian sparkling wine with a strong personality, crafted by a winery that symbolizes the Gavi territory. Made from Cortese grapes and produced using the Classic Method, it stylishly and refinedly interprets the Piemontese whites' vocation for freshness, precision, and aromatic finesse. The Brut version highlights a dry, clear, and harmonious profile, ideal for those seeking an elegant yet versatile wine at the table.
Territory and wine style
The grapes come from the DOCG Gavi area, historically linked to Cortese and capable of producing wines with a clear, savory, and well-recognizable character. In this context, a Blanc de Blancs Riserva is born, designed to unite immediacy and depth, with fine bubbles and a rigorous structure. The long aging in the Classic Method contributes to giving complexity and continuity to the sip, without altering the freshness of the grape variety and the territorial identity.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents itself bright, with light hues and brilliant reflections. The perlage is fine and continuous, a sign of a well-crafted and measured style. On the nose, citrus and fruity aromas emerge, with hints of grapefruit, mandarin, and more evolved notes reminiscent of honey, brioche, bread, and yeast. On the palate, it is dry, tense, and smooth, with good savoriness and a pleasant acidic touch that supports the sip. The structure is balanced, the finish is clean, and the aftertaste leaves a fresh and inviting sensation, consistent with an elegant Classic Method.
Recommended pairings
La Scolca Blanc de Blanc Brut Riserva 2012 easily accompanies many moments of the meal. It pairs excellently with seafood appetizers, raw fish, tartare, oysters, and shellfish, but also expresses well with delicate fried foods, seasonal vegetables, and fresh cheeses. Its freshness makes it suitable for Mediterranean dishes and light preparations based on white meats, always maintaining a good balance between liveliness and finesse.
Serving temperature
To best appreciate La Scolca Blanc de Blanc Brut Riserva 2012, the ideal serving temperature is between 6 and 8 °C. It does not require decanting, but it can benefit from a few minutes in the glass to gradually reveal the aromas and complexity typical of the Classic Method.
