Beppe Morchetta, Vino Spumante, Veneto, Italy

Producer Profile

Beppe Morchetta encapsulates Italian style and good taste with a trio of wines from selected vineyards in the Veneto region of north-eastern Italy.

Unmistakably Italian in presentation and character. The ‘rosso’ is a characterful blend of Merlot and indigenous Corvina, offering up bright cherry and plum flavours; whilst ‘bianco’ combines Garganega and Chardonnay, a true reflection of this specific terroir close to the town of Soave. New in 2023 is a Spumante sparkling wine with lively citrus, apple and toasty notes that make it perfect for every occasion.

Viticulture

Grapes are from young vines grown on sandy clay soils. Harvested at optimum ripeness to deliver a balance of flavour and freshness.

Winemaking

A blend of Garganega and Trebbiano. Winemaker Massimo Donaldi makes a careful selection for the base wine, fermented at approx. 18C in Stainless steel tanks. The second fermentation uses the Martinotti - Charmat method.

Oak Ageing

No oak ageing

Tasting Note

A delicious Italian white for all occasions! Bright, fresh and fruit laden, with an appealing bitter twist on the finish adding to its immense drinkability.

Food Matching

Excellent with vegetable or seafood starters, soups and risotto, and main dishes based on grilled fish and delicate white meats.
