CLASSIC METHOD PINOT NERO EXTRA BRUT "FARFALLA" COLLECTION N°12 - BALLABIO - MAGNUM

Farfalla Extra Brut represents the essence of Ballabio style. It is the synthesis of Pinot Noir's elegance, freshness, and complexity. Its balance comes from grapes grown in estate vineyards with a predominantly calcareous-clay structure, nestled on hillsides between 300 and 400 meters above sea level.

Oltrepò Pavese is that hilly strip of land in southern Lombardy known for being the meeting point of three regions: Lombardy, Piedmont, and Emilia Romagna. This peculiar characteristic makes Oltrepò Pavese rich in different cultures, languages, traditions, and cuisines, yet well integrated.

Equidistant from the North Pole and the Equator, where the lunar freshness of the North meets the solar warmth of the South, lies the 45th parallel, the quintessence of natural balance for the vine plant.

Winemaking:

Soft pressing of whole grapes to obtain and ferment only 45% of the free-run must at a controlled temperature. Aging in steel tanks until spring on its lees.

Secondary Fermentation:

Assemblage of the Cuvée using, along with the wines of the vintage, a good 20% of reserve wines, aged in thermo-conditioned stainless steel tanks to impart complexity and uniqueness. Tirage with selected yeasts from the winery and aging in bottle for at least 30 months. Disgorgement and another 2 months of evolution before release.
