Carolina Gatti Bolle Corsare NV
A$35.00

Region of Italy: Veneto
Producer: Carolina Gatti
Vintage: NV
Vitigno: Prosecco or Glera

The chemical free grapes of Prosecco comes from old vine, most of which still trained with the traditional Belussi system. Spontaneous first  fermentation, long rest in cement vats and then re-fermented using the juice from the first pressing which was frozen. The result is savoury, salty, complex and dangerous beverage. Traditionally it would have been decanted to seperate the sediment but I suggest to roll it like a Cooper's..

Farnea Birbo
A$45.00

Vintage: 2017

Vitigno: tocai, malvasia

Birbo the little rascal is back in town, only for a good time - not a long time (it all gets consumed very fast).  Uber electric & pulsing as expected.  This wine is macerated for over a week on skins to pronounce florals & grip galore.

Service tips: serve at 10-12 C. Summer never looked so bright
