Cantina di Gambellara, Monopolio Durello Spumante, Lessini

Tasted by: Tina Gellie
(at Liberty Annual Tasting, 15 Jan 2019)
This Brut-style fizz with 10g/L residual sugar is made from the ancient Durella grape in the same way as Prosecco, where the second fermentation is in tank, not the bottle. It shows ripe, exotic flavours, a crisp apple bite and a mineral finish. An unusual and appealing aperitif.
