LUNARIA ANCESTRALE Pecorino SPUMANTE BIODYNAMIC and ORGANIC SPARKLING WINE with spontaneous fermentation base Pecorino is a white grape variety native to the Marche and Abruzzo. The first documentary source on the origin of the vine dates back to 1526 and is contained in the Statutes of Norcia (PG) where there is a reference to "vigne de pecurino" (Statutes of Norcia, Liber Tertius, Rubrica CXII). This vine, widespread before the phylloxera, was gradually abandoned during the twentieth century to make room for varieties such as Trebbiano, more productive and responding to a more alimentary than hedonistic value. Origin of the name: also called "grape of the pecorari" because of the grape considered of low value, suitable for humble people such as "pecorari" (derogatory term).

Brut Sparkling Wines: A Complete Guide to Italian Bubbles

Sparkling wines have always been associated with celebrations and special moments. Brut sparkling wines are one of the most beloved and popular types in Italy. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore everything there is to know about Brut sparkling wines , from their production, to flavors and pairings, to the best labels available on the market.

What is a Brut Sparkling Wine?

Brut sparkling wine is a semi-sparkling wine characterized by a low residual sugar content. The term "Brut" refers to the wine's sweetness, and in this case, indicates that the wine is dry, with a residual sugar content of less than 12 grams per liter. This makes it a popular choice for those who prefer less sweet and more refreshing wines.

Production Method

Brut sparkling wines are produced using two main methods: the Classic Method and the Charmat Method.

Classic Method

The Classic Method, also known as the Traditional Method or the Champenoise Method, is the method used to produce Champagne. In this process, the base wine ferments a second time in the bottle, creating natural bubbles and enriching the aromas and flavors. It's a long and complex process, but the result is a wine of great elegance and structure.

Charmat Method

The Charmat Method, also known as the Italian Method, is a faster and more efficient process. The base wine ferments a second time in large stainless steel tanks, preserving the wine's freshness and fruitiness. This method is often used for younger, lighter sparkling wines.

Characteristics of Brut Sparkling Wines

Brut sparkling wines have several characteristics that make them unique and distinctive:

Lively Acidity

Bruts have a lively acidity that makes them fresh and inviting on the palate. This acidity balances the lack of sweetness, creating a harmonious balance.

Fruity Flavors

Brut sparkling wines offer a wide array of fruity aromas, such as green apple, citrus, and white peach. These fresh, fruity aromas make these wines ideal as an aperitif or to accompany light dishes.

Fine and persistent bubbles

The bubbles of Brut sparkling wines are fine and persistent, creating a pleasant sensation of fizz in the mouth.

Versatility in pairings

Thanks to their acidity and structure, Brut sparkling wines pair well with a wide range of foods, from seafood to white meats, and are also perfect enjoyed on their own at festive times.

The Best Italian Brut Sparkling Wine Labels

Italy boasts a vast selection of Brut sparkling wines , produced in various regions of the country. Here are some of the best labels to try:

1. Ferrari Trento Brut

Produced in Alto Adige, Ferrari Trento Brut is one of Italy's most renowned sparkling wines. With notes of green apple and bread crust, it's an elegant and refined wine.

2. Ca' del Bosco Cuvée Prestige Brut

From Lombardy comes the Ca' del Bosco Cuvée Prestige Brut, a structured and complex wine with aromas of citrus and yeast.

3. Berlucchi '61 Franciacorta Brut

The Berlucchi '61 Franciacorta Brut is another unmissable Italian sparkling wine. With its freshness and creaminess, it's perfect for any occasion.

4. La Gioiosa Prosecco Superiore Brut

If you prefer a lighter option, La Gioiosa Prosecco Superiore Brut from the Veneto region is the ideal choice. Delicate and aromatic, it's perfect for a cheerful toast.

The History of Brut Sparkling Wines

The tradition of sparkling wines in Italy has ancient roots, dating back to ancient Rome. However, the success of Brut sparkling wines as we know them today is primarily linked to the Champagne region of France, where the Metodo Classico (traditional method) took hold in the 17th century. Since then, this production style has spread throughout Italy, giving rise to the delicious Brut sparkling wines we love and appreciate today.

How to Store and Serve Brut Sparkling Wines

To fully enjoy the bubbles of Brut sparkling wines , it is essential to store and serve them correctly.

Conservation

Store Brut sparkling wines in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Avoid sudden temperature changes and store them horizontally to keep the cork moist.

Service

To serve Brut sparkling wine at the right temperature, chill it in the refrigerator for at least two hours before opening. The ideal serving temperature is between 6°C and 8°C. Pour the wine at a 45-degree angle to maximize the bubbles.

Brut sparkling wines embody the charm and elegance of Italian bubbles. With their lively acidity, fruity aromas, and fine bubbles, they are a perfect choice for any celebration or special occasion. Explore the vast selection of available labels and delight your guests with the refined taste of Brut sparkling wines .

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Brut sparkling wine and an Extra Dry sparkling wine?

The main difference lies in the level of sweetness. A Brut sparkling wine is dry, while an Extra Dry is slightly sweeter.

How long does a bottle of Brut sparkling wine keep?

Most Brut sparkling wines keep best for about 2-3 years from the production date. However, some can age even better.

What are the main grape varieties used to produce Italian Brut sparkling wines?

Among the most commonly used grape varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Blanc, but there are many other regional varieties that are also used.

Can I pair a Brut sparkling wine with a red meat dish?

Yes, but it's better to opt for a more structured and complex Brut, like a Franciacorta or a Trentodoc.

What makes Italy such a renowned region for producing sparkling wines?
