Franciacorta Solouva Dosage Zero - Solouva

The Franciacorta Solouva Dosaggio Zero is produced with a new production technique where in no phase, neither for the second fermentation nor for the liquor de expedition, are added sugars. The grapes are harvested when they reach full maturity, the wine is bottled when the first fermentation is not yet finished and therefore there are still fermentable sugars, while for the dosage previously frozen must is used. Produced from a chardonnay only vine planted in the 1995 of only 0.5 hectares. Refine on the lees for 36 months. It remains in the bottle after degorgement for at least 6 months. Solouva Dosaggio Zero has a bright straw yellow color with a beautiful perlage. Hints of flowers and white fruit on the nose. On the palate it is straight and tense with the acidity that guides the sip and leads to compulsive drinking.

Cellar: Solouva

Solouva is a young company from Franciacorta which is part of the TerraUomoCielo project. The project was born in 2002 from the meeting between Giovanni Arcari, sales agent, and Nico Danesi, winemaker of the Camossi company, with the producer Andrea Arici of Colline della Stella, with the aim of creating wines that reflect the philosophy of the people involved, wines with a precise identity and character. Solouva is led by the young and promising Andrea Rudelli, who cultivates one and a half hectares of property, planted only in chardonnay. For the production of his Franciacorta, Andrea does not make use of external sugars, but only those of the grape, at every stage of processing. Hence the name of the company: Solouva. Andrea's philosophy consists in collecting the bunches when fully ripe, thus exploiting the sugars of the grapes both for the first fermentation and for the second fermentation (exploiting the sugars that remain blocking the first fermentation before it is finished). The final dosage is also carried out using only must. Solouva exists in two versions: Brut and Zero dosage. Franciacorta which express the identity and expression of the territory
