Terre Di Chieti Il Mostro Rosato Longana Frizzante IGT

Vintage: 2022
Description: 100% Montepulciano. Il Mostro' was conceived as a new experimental project from Poggio Anima. The names of the wines are derived from children's bedtime warnings throughout Europe. This is a single-vineyard wine from the Monteodorisio Vineyard in Chieti, Abruzzo. '''Longana' is a mythological creature that calls the caves above the cliffs of the northern Adriatic Sea home. Primary fermentation occurred naturally in a sealed stainless-steel tank and when the wine reached 15 g/L residual sugar the tank was cooled down in order to hold the ferment at 10 g/L. The wine was bottled and topped with more of the unfermented juice from tank and the bottles were crown sealed. Secondary fermentation occurred over the next 2-3 months and the wine was released without disgorgement. An organic Ptillant Naturel showing notes of spices, flowers and herbs complement red berries on the nose and in the mouth. At once dense and juicy, with the light red fruit flavors and floral notes carrying through on the persistent finish, which features an underbrush nuance. Firm acid holds it all together to make it the exciting glass of sparkling ros.*Natural and Organic
