Novecento59 Vermentino di Sardegna DOC – Metodo Classico Sparkling Wine

Novecento59 is an elegant Sardinian sparkling wine made from Vermentino grapes and produced using the traditional Metodo Classico method. This traditional production process gives the wine its fine, persistent bubbles, elegant structure and distinctive notes of bread crust.

Traditional Metodo Classico Production

With the Metodo Classico, the bubbles are not added through simple carbonation. Instead, the sparkling wine undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle. After the initial fermentation, the base wine is bottled with a special mixture of yeast and sugar. A second fermentation then takes place inside the bottle, during which the yeast converts the sugar into alcohol and naturally occurring carbon dioxide.

The wine subsequently matures on its lees in the bottle for a period of time. This maturation contributes to greater complexity, a finer and more persistent perlage and subtle aromas such as bread crust, which are characteristic of traditionally produced sparkling wines.

This elaborate process adds another dimension to the character of Vermentino: the grape's typical freshness and floral Mediterranean aromas are combined with the elegance and complexity of a classically produced sparkling wine.

In the glass, Novecento59 shows a pale yellow color with delicate greenish reflections, accompanied by a fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet is intensely floral, with elegant notes of fresh flowers and white-fleshed peach.

On the palate, it is fresh and lively, with a subtle saline character and delicate hints of bread crust. Its harmonious balance and pleasant tension make it an elegant and versatile Sardinian sparkling wine.

Novecento59 is excellent as an aperitif and pairs particularly well with fish, seafood and light Mediterranean dishes.
