Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi DOC Metodo Classico Pas Dosè 2015 Casaleta

Casaleta's Metodo Classico sparkling wine was born in the central Marche region, in Castiglioni di Arcevia, where the 13th century fortified castle stands in the municipality of Rocca Contrada, in the province of Ancona.

It is produced exclusively from Verdicchio grapes, harvested by hand and softly pressed. The must obtained is statically cold decanted and subsequently fermented in thermo-regulated steel tanks. Second fermentation takes place in bottle, where the wine refines on its lees for 24–36 months.

It is characterized by a straw yellow colour and a fine and persistent perlage. The nose opens with aromas of yellow and citrus fruits, as well as notes of anise and vanilla. The sip is warm and savoury, with a bitter finish.

Perfect as an accompaniment to fish, crustaceans and molluscs both roasted and cooked in the oven, as well as risottos and pasta with savoury fish sauces.
