Classic Method Reserve V38AG

In a unique and inimitable terroir, 400 m above sea level, in the heart of Sicily, there are 75 hectares of vineyards owned by the Milazzo family, where the climatic characteristics of the hill and the morphology of the land combine with the beneficial influences of a typically Mediterranean climate, with mild summers and mild winters; a constant and light breeze, which favors the day-night temperature range and good ventilation of the plant. A territory characterized by a particular concentration of morphologically varied soils: from dark clays integrated with organic matter to white calcareous ones; the former with constant and homogeneous fertility, the latter ideal for guaranteeing wines rich and complex aromatic profiles. With a history that spans five generations and that continues in the name of valorizing the company tradition, thanks to the commitment of Giuseppina Milazzo and Saverio Lo Leggio, united in the desire to give continuity to the virtuous evolution of the family business, the most interesting aspect of the way of "making wine" is represented by the tireless work in the vineyard. The natural improvement of the vines is the result of a technical path that has been going on for over fifty years, which made them the first producers of classic method sparkling wines in Sicily, and the first Sicilian winemakers, between the end of the seventies and the beginning of the eighties, to exalt the winemaking from native Sicilian vines. Organic and sustainable. The BIO certification seals the commitment that they have always put in place as winemakers to produce quality and is also evidence of the responsibility they feel to be custodians of the environment in which they operate, with the precise intent of arriving at producing a great Sicilian Classic Method sparkling wine.

Metodo Classico Riserva V38AG by G. Milazzo represents excellence in Italian sparkling wine production, the result of a careful selection of grapes and a long aging on the lees. This sparkling wine, born from the expert fusion of special clones of Inzolia and Chardonnay, unmistakably expresses the Sicilian terroir and the winemaking passion of the Milazzo family. The production of Metodo Classico Riserva V38AG strictly follows the traditional champenoise method. The grapes, hand-picked at the right degree of ripeness, are softly pressed and the must ferments in steel at a controlled temperature. Subsequently, the cuvée is assembled and bottled with the addition of selected yeasts and sugar. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle, where the wine ages on the lees for a minimum period of 8 years. During this long aging, the yeast autolysis processes occur, which give the wine aromatic complexity and a silky structure.

Bright straw yellow color, with golden reflections. Fine and persistent perlage, which creates an elegant and long-lasting effervescence. Complex and enveloping aroma, with notes of ripe yellow pulp fruit (peach, pineapple), enriched by hints of bread crust, vanilla and yeasts. Floral nuances of acacia and lime are perceived, which give the wine a delicate aroma. On the palate it is silky, creamy and very balanced. The bubble is fine and persistent, enveloping the palate with a sensation of freshness and minerality. The taste is broad and complex, with returns of ripe fruit, notes of pastry and a long and persistent finish, characterized by a pleasant flavor. The Metodo Classico Riserva V38AG is a versatile sparkling wine, ideal for accompanying aperitifs, delicate appetizers, first courses based on fish or shellfish. It goes perfectly with mature cheeses and not too sweet desserts.
