Vesna Nature - Stefano Milanesi

Vesna Nature - Stefano Milanesi

Sparkling wine made from pure Pinot Noir grapes that comes from vines with an average age of 25 years. The harvest of the grapes is manual with selection of individual bunches. The grapes are softly pressed in a wine press so as to extract only the must that is not discolored and is not clarified. The base wine after fermentation remains in contact on the fine lees until the time of the tirage. Permanence on noble lees for at least 36 months. No dosage after disgorgement. The Vesna has a bright straw yellow color and a perlage with excellent fineness and persistence. On the nose the aromas are very intense and have a pleasant finesse. Immediately perceived clear hints of yeast, followed by notes of white flowers and aromatic herbs, all supported by an intriguing mineral background that embellishes the aromatic compartment. In the mouth the entrance is intense and decisive, of excellent structure, very dry, with a freshness and a long persistence. A classic method with character and organoleptic power.

Service

We taste the Vesna at a temperature of 8/10° in ballon flute. Wine to drink immediately but will express its best in a few years.

Pairing

Excellent wine to pair with fish starters, first courses with vegetables, second courses with white meats.

Winery: Stefano Milanesi  

The company of Stefano Milanesi is located in Santa Giuletta, in the hamlet of Castello, on the hills of Oltrepo Pavese. This area enjoys an ideal microclimate for the production of high quality wines. The vineyards are located at an altitude between 170 and 280 meters above sea level, and enjoy the currents of the Gulf of Tigullio that guarantees a perfect ripening of the grapes. The history of the company is ancient, dating back to the late nineteenth century when Antonio Milanesi bought vineyards next to his house. His son Leopold, enlarged the underground cellar dug in the marl and in the rock, where the wine could age. But the real breakthrough came with the son of Leopoldo, Antonio, who in the seventies bought new land and brought the business area from 2 to 11 hectares. Today the company is managed by Stefano Milanesi, winemaker and winemaker, who takes care of all the processes from the vineyard to the cellar, making use of forgotten techniques. Stefano succeeded over time, based on the different terrains and the different microclimatic conditions, to create micro-zones where his grapes are grown. In the warmer ones we find the Croatina and the Cabernet Sauvignon, in the colder ones the Riesling Italico and above all the Pinot Nero which reaches exceptional quality levels. In the vineyard, Stefano is particularly attentive and does a meticulous job so as to have very healthy grapes. No yeasts purchased are used in the cellar, no clarifying or bleaching treatments are carried out on musts and wines and acidification or deacidation are not carried out. The wines of Stefano Milanesi are exceptional, fruit of the territory.
