Villa Corniole Salísa Zero Riserva

Salísa Zero Riserva Trentodoc
Spumante according to the classic method

Name: Trento DOC Riserva

Type: Brut, classic method, millesimato

Area: Terraced mountain vineyards in Trentino, Valle di Cembra

Soil: Limestone

Location: West (optimal for obtaining ripe grapes, but with a pronounced acidity)

Planting system: Trentino pergola and guyot, yield approximately 60 hl/ha

Serving temperature: 8–10 °C

Vinification: After careful hand selection of the grapes, a gentle pressing of whole bunches follows, using only free-run must. Fermentation and maturation take place for approximately 85–90% in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with the remainder maturing in tonneaux. Second fermentation in the bottle according to the traditional method, followed by a long maturation on the lees for over 60 months in an underground cellar at a constant temperature. No dosage is added during disgorgement.

Visual inspection: Straw yellow colour; abundant and persistent mousse; very fine and persistent perlage.

Aromatic analysis: Elegant and intense bouquet, fragrant and complex, with floral notes and ripe yellow fruit typical of Chardonnay, complemented by subtle aromas of hazelnut and lightly toasted bread, thanks to the long maturation on the lees.

Palate: A distinctly dry wine. Savory, mineral, and fresh. A sparkling wine whose character immediately evokes the Valle di Cembra, a very suitable terroir for Trento DOC.

Pairings: Excellent as an aperitif for the most discerning palate, but also perfectly suited to accompany a full meal. Perfect with fish dishes, shellfish, vegetables, alpine meats, and aged cheeses, as well as rice, pasta, and main courses with fish and white meat.

Chardonnay
This is a versatile and elegant grape variety known for its fresh acidity and refined structure. It produces wines with aromas of yellow fruit and flowers, often complemented by subtle notes of nuts and brioche. Thanks to its early hand harvest, it retains its vibrancy and finesse.
