Irpinia Sparkling Wine "Lisetta" DOC - PonteRotto Winery

Lisetta is the first Charmat Method Spumante produced by Cantina Ponterotto, obtained entirely from the grapes of the native Greco vine through a slow process of refermentation on the yeasts in an autoclave. The characteristic bright yellow stands out to the eye together with the persistent fine-grained perlage, while the nose receives refined floral aromas, highlighted by the typical mineral note of Greco. The dry, harmonious and elegant taste makes it perfect for pairing with aperitifs.
