Description
The Cuvée Tenuta Val de Brun of the Astoria company was born in the "Costa del Sol" vineyards of Refrontolo, in the heart of the Prosecco Superiore di Conegliano-Valdobbiadene production area.
It is produced with hand-picked grapes in September, when their perfect organoleptic balance is reached. After a period of soft pressing and static settling, native yeasts are added to the must and it is transferred to steel containers at a controlled temperature of 16 °C, where the primary fermentation takes place. Subsequently, the wine is transferred to a pressurized tank for the second fermentation, which takes place without interrupting the fermentation, for a period of 20-25 days, plus another 15 days on the lees.
The Cuvée Tenuta Val de Brun has a straw yellow colour with light greenish reflections. The perlage is fine-grained and continuous. On the nose there are strong fruity hints of Sorrento lemon, peach and white melon, as well as more Mediterranean aromas of aromatic herbs and thyme. In the mouth it is soft and harmonious, creamy with the fresh finish of aromatic herbs but also savoury, which balances the sugar content.
For combinations, fish first courses, baked white fish, pancakes with Treviso radicchio and ricotta are particularly suitable. Also perfect to accompany an aperitif.
