Bisson Spumante Abissi Riserva Marina Metodo Classico Portofino Dosage Zero 2020

Bisson Spumante Abissi Riserva Marina 2020 is a Ligurian Metodo Classico made from Vermentino, with the region’s maritime character at its core. Its distinctive feature is at least 18 months of maturation beneath the Ligurian Sea, followed by release as a bone-dry Dosage Zero sparkling wine.

Tasting Notes
Straw yellow in the glass, with a very fine, persistent stream of bubbles. The intense nose is marked by saline notes, while the palate is direct and elegant, with pronounced minerality and a lasting, sea-influenced character. Specific guidance on further bottle-aging potential is not provided.

Production
Made from selected Vermentino grapes grown in the Portofino area, the wine undergoes secondary fermentation in bottle using the traditional method. After prise de mousse, the bottles are secured in steel cages and submerged around 60 metres below the surface for at least 18 months, in darkness and at a constant temperature of approximately 15°C. The movement of the currents and the underwater conditions shape its distinctive texture and mineral profile; harvesting details are not specified.

Food & Serving
Its saline, mineral character makes it a natural match for shellfish, sushi, lean fish, fried seafood and delicately flavoured cheeses. Serve well chilled, around 6–8°C, and pour directly from the bottle rather than decanting to preserve its freshness and fine mousse.

Producer
Bisson is a producer from Liguria whose Abissi project is known for pioneering sparkling-wine maturation on the seabed. The bottles’ extended rest beneath the Ligurian Sea gives this wine a distinctive connection to its coastal origin. Further details about the producer’s history and awards are not provided.
