Pievalta Perlugo Spumante hails from the Marche region in Italy, known for its unique expression of the Verdicchio grape, which is typically used for still wines. However, Pievalta has crafted an exceptional sparkling version that showcases the versatility of Verdicchio. The wine is produced through the Metodo Classico, where it undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, followed by aging on the lees, which enhances its complexity and richness. The winery, certified organic since 2002, emphasizes biodynamic practices that contribute to the wine’s purity and expressiveness. This spumante stands out with its fine bubbles and vibrant character, making it a notable alternative to more traditional sparkling wines like Prosecco or Champagne.
