ArtisanalThe Sparkling "La Damigella" is an Emilian Ancestral Method naturally refermented in the bottle that impresses with its smooth drinkability and the liveliness of the sip. Yeasty, citrus, and slightly floral notes accompany a cheerful and carefree profile, agile and easy to drink, with invigorating freshness.
'La Damigella' Sparkling White from the artisanal winery Podere Cervarola is a lively and refreshing Emilia Ancestral Method, resulting from a blend of three native grape varieties: Trebbiano Modenese, Trebbiano di Spagna, and Occhio di Gatto. The first variety, present in a predominant measure, is characterized by balance and pleasantness; the second, also known as Trebbianina, stands out for its sweet and floral profile; finally, Occhio di Gatto is appreciated for its characteristic, almost aromatic scent. Besides its viticultural aspect, the importance of Trebbiano Modenese and Trebbiano di Spagna is attributed to their use in the production of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena.
