Trentodoc Brut Riserva Quore 2015

Quore (an intentional typo, as “Cuore” would be the Italian word for heart), is the name chosen by the talented Lucia Letrari for her first blanc del blancs Riserva, produced starting from the 2008 harvest. It comes from the research of absolute elegance, it is a sparkling wine inspired by the heart more than the brain. The finesse of the mountain Chardonnay and a long aging on the lees are the secrets that make this Trentino sparkling wine so fascinating. The grapes come from selected vineyards in Vallagarina.

The harvest is manual and selective. The best bunches are quickly brought to the cellar in small boxes. From a delicate pressing comes a pure free-run must which is clarified and fermented in steel vats at a controlled temperature to give life to the base wine. The wine remains in steel until the second fermentation takes place in the bottle, after adding selected yeasts and sugars. Aging on the lees is 60 months.
