Tasting notes
1759 is an intense and complex sparkling wine with a great structure, a fine and persistent perlage. On the nose, it discloses the typical aromas of a Traditional method wine: bread crust and lees aromas with notes of pear, hawthorn and nuts. Particularly creamy on the palate and of great persistence in the aftertaste.
Pairings
The light freshness, and pleasant hints of acidity make 1759 the perfect companion for fish based dishes or white meat based dishes (poultry, rabbit). Ideal for an aperitif and suitable for all courses, with the exception of desserts and some particularly structured dishes such as game or truffle.
Why we like it
It is a natural sparkling wine obtained with the Traditional or Champenoise method which consists of allowing a base wine to go through a second fermentation inside the bottle by adding the liqueur, a sugar and yeast wine solution. The wine ages on its lees inside the bottle for 48 months before proceeding with the removal of the lees. A fascinating method capable of trapping the bubbles of Co2 in the same bottle. After a long ageing period of 48 months, the wine is ready for its gentle pop when it will finally release its delicate bouquet.
