Why shop with us?
Fontanafredda Alta Langa Limited Edition Brut 2022 is a Metodo Classico sparkling wine from Piemonte, blending Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in a precise, elegant style. Its fine, persistent bubbles and savoury mineral character reflect the estate’s longstanding interest in the region’s sparkling-wine tradition.
Tasting Notes
Pale straw-yellow with greenish highlights, it opens with aromas of honey, white peach and grapefruit, lifted by a fresh hint of basil. The palate is creamy yet lively, with a distinctive saline edge, fine mousse and a long, harmonious finish.
Production
The grapes come from hillside vineyards in the Langhe, planted at 250–500 metres above sea level in soils of white clay and calcareous sand. They are harvested by hand, generally from late August to early September, then gently pressed and fermented at low temperature in stainless steel. After resting on fine lees, the wines are blended for the cuvée; the second fermentation takes place in bottle, followed by at least 30 months on the lees.
Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, around 6–8°C, as an aperitif or alongside seafood, shellfish, delicate fried dishes and fresh cheeses. Its savoury finish also makes it a versatile companion through a meal. Decanting is not recommended; pour gently into sparkling-wine glasses to preserve the mousse.
Producer
Fontanafredda is a historic Langhe estate, founded in 1858 and closely associated with the development of Piemonte’s wine identity, particularly its Barolo tradition. Its Alta Langa bottlings reflect the estate’s commitment to Metodo Classico sparkling wines made from the region’s hillside vineyards.
