DBE Classic Method Sparkling Wine Blanc de Noir Zero Dosage from the Marco De Bartoli winery
De Bartoli's Classic Method DBE is obtained from native Nerello Mascalese grapes coming from vineyards outside the DOC area of Tenuta Solisciaro, in Castiglione di Sicilia. Between Solicchiata and Passopisciaro, in the Rampante district, De Bartoli produces a Sicilian sparkling wine of great aromatic complexity and freshness. Nerello Mascalese vinified in white with refermentation in the bottle and aged in steel on its own yeasts, DBE Metodo Classico is a zero-dosage Blanc de Noir of indescribable finesse and elegance. The further refinement in the bottle on the yeasts for 18 months gives it depth and persistence. DBE Metodo Classico pas dosé is a superior quality sparkling wine perfect for accompanying gourmet dinners or for toasting on important occasions.
