Sollùchero 2020 - Nevio Scala

Sollùchero - Nevio Scala

Sollùchero by Nevio Scala is the most fragrant wine of the company, the result of the dry expression of white and yellow Moscato grapes that come from the vineyard overlooking the old courtyard of the cellar. After the manual harvest, the grapes taken to the cellar are destemmed and placed in steel tanks. The pre-fermentation maceration lasts about three days and prepares the fermentation of the must in contact with the skins without the addition of selected yeasts. The must is separated from the skins at the beginning of fermentation which ends in cement tanks, where it remains for an aging period of about 9 months with periodic bâtonnage operations for the reintroduction of the fine lees into the mass. The bottling takes place without the addition of sulphites. The wine is expressed with aromatic hints that mainly recall yellow-fleshed fruit, citrus fruits and white flowers, while the sip shows a sweet, soft and persistent nature on the palate.

Service

We recommend tasting at a temperature of 8/10 ° in tulip glasses. Wine to drink immediately but will express its best in a few years. In the meantime, it is advisable to keep it in a horizontal position in a cool, damp and dark cellar.

Pairing

It goes perfectly with first courses with vegetables, second courses of fish, to try with a perch gratin.

Winery: Nevio Scala

Nevio Scala, after having trampled the soccer fields of the whole world first as a player, then as a coach, with his historic enterprises with Parma in the nineties, he decides to change his life and return to his native places, precisely in Lozzo Atestino, to feet of the Euganean Hills to revive its family cellar. A project that focuses on organic farming, far from chemical products, far from the excessive exploitation of natural resources, but rather faithful to a sustainable development model over time. The cultivated hectares are about 6 where we find Garganega, Merlot, Cabernet franc, Istrian Malvasia, white and yellow muscat, all of which rest on volcanic and alluvial soil. The first harvest was in 2016 from which the three wines that for now produce are born: the "Gargànte", refermented in the bottle only on indigenous yeasts, the "Dilètto", still white, and the "Cóntame", a white macerated on the peels, or an "Orange Wine". Three wines that fully reflect the personality of Nevio Scala, respectful of the raw material and bearers of the salinet characteristics of the territory.
