WINE DESCRIPTION

The "Edi Kante Dosaggio Zero Spumante" hails from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, Italy, and is a standout in the world of Metodo Classico sparkling wines. Crafted by the esteemed Kante winery, this "KK" exemplifies the Dosaggio Zero style, where no additional dosage liquor is added in the final stages of production. A highly versatile bubbly, it brings joy both as an aperitif and a dining companion. The wine's uniqueness lies in allowing the terroir to speak freely, delivering a sip that is refreshingly cool and mineral-rich. The marriage of Malvasia and Chardonnay, from 15-year-old vines on red and limestone soils at 250 meters above sea level, produces a meticulously crafted sparkling wine. After white vinification and 12 months of barrel aging, the Metodo Classico re-fermentation in the bottle occurs, with a minimum 12 months of yeast contact. Remarkably, during disgorgement, no additional dosage liquor is added, making it a must-have in any personal wine reserve.
