Quarticello Despina
ORGANIC / VEGAN / LOW SULPHITE / NATURAL
Lightly sparkling, cloudy, and full of flavour. It's packed with grapefruit zest, apple, pear, and salty minerality. A wonderfully fresh sparkling wine made with a perfumed local variety, Malvasia di Candia. Initially fermented in a vat, the wine is transferred to a bottle with a little must for the second fermentation (like a Pet Nat).
From his family’s vineyards in Montecchio Emilia, Roberto Maestri makes a handful of sparkling wines that equal the best in the region.
Roberto works organically on five hectares of vines, he only uses wild yeasts and his bubbles are made the traditional way in Emilia, with the second fermentation completed in the bottle.
