Bisson Spumante Abissi Riserva Marina Metodo Classico Portofino Dosage Zero 2019

Bisson’s Abissi Riserva Marina is one of Liguria’s most distinctive sparkling wines, created from Vermentino and aged in a truly unusual way beneath the sea off Portofino. Made in Metodo Classico with no dosage, it captures both the purity of the grape and the saline character of the Ligurian coast. A modern icon with a memorable story, it stands out as much for its craftsmanship as for its remarkable underwater maturation.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a bright, refined mousse and a pale straw color with green-gold reflections. The nose is precise and coastal, with notes of citrus peel, white flowers, green apple, sea spray, and a subtle mineral depth. On the palate it is dry, crisp, and energetic, with Vermentino’s fresh orchard fruit wrapped around a distinctly saline, chalky backbone. The zero dosage finish keeps the wine taut and elegant, while its underwater aging adds complexity and a subtle savory texture. It should drink beautifully now, but can also develop additional nuance over the next few years.

Production
Produced from Vermentino in Liguria, this wine comes from a region shaped by steep coastal vineyards, maritime influence, and limited yields. After harvest, the base wine is vinified according to Metodo Classico, then aged and refined in the sea near Portofino, where constant darkness, stable temperature, and gentle movement influence the wine’s evolution. The result is a sparkling wine with depth, freshness, and a strong sense of place.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for oysters, raw seafood, shellfish, sushi, crudo, and delicate fish dishes, as well as Ligurian specialties such as trofie al pesto. Serve well chilled at around 8–10°C. Decanting is not recommended; open shortly before serving to preserve its fine mousse and vibrant aromatics.
