After seven years of research and reflection, a wine has been created that captures the character and emotion of its unique terroir. Temperature variations, the calcareous soil, and the vine's deep roots impart minerality and flavor. In the cellar, attention and respect for the grapes preserve their integrity, resulting in fine, elegant, and creamy bubbles. Aging on the lees further enriches the wine, making it "simply complex." The Eocene is a geological epoch in which the great mountain ranges of today were formed, and consequently our precious compact clay and limestone soils.
Eocene means "new dawn" and is in fact seen as the protagonist of significant climate changes, a theme as ancient as it is current.
Specifically, our current hilly environment was once a reef with a significant presence of coralline algae and shark teeth, typical of a coastal marine environment with shallow waters, high temperatures, and clear waters. We meticulously cultivate our vineyards: we minimize the use of machinery and pesticides, preferring manual work that respects the soil's balance and encourages the presence of wild microfauna. In the cellar, once the grapes have been pressed, all the pomace is recovered and transformed into compost, which will become a beneficial organic biofertilizer for our vineyards. Harvesting is completely manual, ensuring that each bunch arrives at the cellar intact, ready for gentle pressing that preserves the purity of the must.
A gorgeous pale straw color with pearly highlights, small, persistent bubbles rise from the glass. Intense aromas of pear and apple blend with mineral and iodine notes.
The natural roundness is provided by the presence of refermentation yeasts, which naturally settle to the bottom of the bottle. Extremely elegant and balanced. The palate is delicate and enveloping, highlighted by its balance, accompanied by fruity highlights. In the glass, it unfolds, offering sweet floral and mineral notes. The meticulous attention to the entire production process has allowed us to keep sulfites below the limits set by the organic wine production regulations.
