The Wine

The Raboso Frizzante of the Bervini winery is produced with Raboso grapes grown in the vineyards owned by the winery and located in Sequals in the province of Pordenone, in the heart of the DOC Grave del Friuli. All the vineyards don’t use herbicides, chemical fertilizers and synthetic insecticides but only products the community regulation allows. The winery believes organic farming is the right choice to protect the environment and human health. For them, it is essential to work as nature commands.

This Raboso is part of the Brio line, a line of sparkling wines that are fresh and inviting; the wines of this line come from vines rooted in the Friuli area, with a contemporary and youthful cut.

THE WINEMAKING

After harvesting, the selected grapes are taken to the cellar for winemaking. Fermentation on the skins occurs in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 22/24°C and lasts about 8/10 days, following the pressing and refinement. The wine is then transferred to an autoclave to make it sparkling (Martinotti method); here, it rests for at least 25 days at a constant temperature of 17°C.

THE TASTING

Intense purplish-red; the perlage is light and delicate and also purplish. The aroma is fresh with pleasant hints of berries. This wine is winey and soft on the palate, with excellent correspondence between aromas and the flavour; good acidity.

FOOD PAIRINGS

Excellent with cold cuts and medium-hard cheeses. Try it with pizza.
